    Thank you so much, luisa! It always does frustrate when the title of a recipe says one thing and the submission doesn't include everything it should. I appreciate your investigative skills and, again, thank you. NOW I can make these completely...

    Coconut Cream Cheese Frosting and Pineapple
    What You'll Need...
    1/2 cup of butter (1 stick), room temperature
    8 oz of Philly cream cheese (1 package), room temperature
    1/2-1 cup of powdered sugar
    1/4 cup of sweetened dessicated coconut
    1 pineapple

    What You'll Do...
    1) Cream the butter and cream cheese together, about 3 minutes. Scraped down the sides and bottom.
    2) Slowly add the powdered sugar. Fold in the coconut. Spread onto cooled cupcakes.
    3) Cut up a fresh (seriously, take the extra time and use a fresh one, not canned) pineapple. Place small wedges onto the cupcakes and serve. There will be plenty left over. Use it for pineapple salsa, cocktails, salads, or drinks. It's spring outside, there's a ton of fresh uses for pineapple. Go crazy.

    I wouldn't worry about a frosting for these because they sure sound like they would be very good with a glass of milk, just the way they are.
