So I had this idea for a cupcake, I had been tinkering with the idea of strawberry cupcakes with Malibu butter cream frosting. I decided that the last time I had a strawberry cupcake it was too strong and fake tasting.\u00a0 Today was the day I decided to come home and give this recipe a try.\u00a0 I have to say I LOVE THEM!!!<\/p>\n

Cupcakes<\/h3>\n

1\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Strawberry boxed cake mix
\n1 c.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Pineapple (used crushed in natural juice, I got about 1\/4 cup of just juice out and put the fruit in the mini-processor)
\n1\/3c.\u00a0 Oil
\n3\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Eggs<\/p>\n

Mix and bake as per box instructions.\u00a0 I didn’t want there to be stringy pieces of pineapple in my cupcakes so I used the food processor to get more of a puree.\u00a0 I am sure you could do this either way.<\/p>\n

Once the cupcakes are cooled frost!<\/p>\n

Frosting<\/h3>\n

6 cups of powdered sugar
\n1\/2 c. of Coconut flavored rum (may take more or less)
\n1 tbl of clear vanilla
\n1.5\u00a0 sticks of butter at room temp
\nPinch of salt<\/p>\n

Beat the butter with a mixer slowly add powdered sugar alternating with the liquid. I actually started with 4 cups, 1 stick and 6 TBL of rum but it wasn’t enough for the 20 cupcakes (yeah this time I didn’t get 2 dozen).\u00a0 If you thought that wasn’t going to be enough I would use 2 lb sugar, 2 sticks of butter, the same run\u00a0& Vanilla and do the rest of your thinning with milk.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Now frost those bad boys and ENJOY!!<\/p>\n
