Pineapple Cupcakes

We were heading to a BBQ last night and I was asked to bring a yummy treat. I wasn't able to go to the store, but fortunately I keep a stockpile of cake mixes. Wanting something light for summer I chose a pineapple cake mix and added crushed pineapple. It was delicious!


1 Box pineapple supreme cake mix
1 1/2 cups crushed pineapple
3 eggs
1/3 cup oil
1 container whipped cream cheese frosting


Directions: 
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • Mix the cake mix, pineapple, eggs and oil together and fill mini cupcake (or normal cupcake) liners 3/4 full 
  • When the cupcakes puff and a toothpick comes out cleanly, remove from oven. 
  • If you do not have a pre-whipped cream cheese frosting, put the frosting in a bowl and mix with a mixer for 3-5 minutes until it becomes lighter
  • Put into a decorators bag and frost with whatever tip you like best! For these, I used a large round open tip. 
  • Sprinkle your favorite sprinkles on!
