1 1/4 cups water
1/2 cup Land O Lakes Butter, softened
3 Land O Lakes All-Natural Egg whites
1 teaspoon almond flavoring

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Combine all cake ingredients except coconut in large bowl. Beat according to package directions. Gently stir in coconut. Fill paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full. Bake for 19 to 22 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely. Combine all frosting ingredients in medium bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Frost cooled cupcakes. Place 2 butter rum candies on each cupcake for eyes. Dip bottoms of chocolate chips into frosting; place onto each candy circle to form center of eye. Arrange almonds above eyes for feathers. Add cashew for beak.

Butter rum candies with holes are available in bags or rolls. Yellow or orange candies can be substituted for the butter rum.
