Pina Colada Muffins

Last night I baked Pina Colada muffins (more like cupcakes really) and they turned out superbly. They are totally addicting! To keep myself from eating too many, I decided to bring the remainder into work today, but all of a sudden I am feeling selfish and am considering hiding them until the end of the day when they can come back home with me so I can eat them all anyway. *evil grin*
Click below for the recipe.
1 box coconut flavored cake mix (or you could use yellow cake mix)
1 t. pure coconut extract
1 t. pure rum extract
1 C. flaked coconut
1 can crushed pineapple - (8 oz.) with liquid
1 can coconut icing
Preheat oven to 350° F. Prepare the cake batter according to package directions. Add the remaining ingredients to the batter and mix for 1 minute. (Do not over-mix.)
Fill greased muffin cups 3/4 full and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden. Let cool on wire racks. Serve.
Yield 24 Muffins

Those look yummy! Will have to try your recipe!
You know, I did that with rice crispie treats the other day. I felt guilty for being such a pig with them, then brought them to work, THEN was mad b/c everyone ate them! Haha, I'm such a brilliant person. :)
Hannah, I just saw someone on the Food TV Network (I think it was Ina Garten) bake coconut cupcakes ~ they looked just like yours and looked SO YUMMY! Thanks for the recipe!
