Pina Colada Cupcakes image

These are fabulous semi-homemade cupcakes that taste just like a pina colada. The cupcake itself has pineapple added to it which makes the cupcake very moist. Rum extract adds to the flavor. Rum and coconut extracts are added to the frosting giving it a tropical drink flavor. Topped with a little coconut makes this a fun party...
