PIñA COLADA ANGEL FOOD CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C).
• Sift together cake flour and ¾ cup of sugar.
• In a large mixing bowl with whisk attachment, beat the egg whites until foamy on a low speed.
• Add cream of tartar and salt and continue to beat, gradually increasing the speed to high.
• When the egg whites get whiter, add remaining ¾ cup of sugar one tablespoon at a time.
• Add pure vanilla extract and continue to beat on high speed until hard peaks form.
• Transfer the whipped egg whites into a large bowl.
• Add flour/sugar mixture and carefully mix everything together. Be careful not to deflate the batter too much.
• Now transfer the batter to ungreased angel food cake pan. Even out the surface. Run a butter knife through the batter to remove any air bubbles.
• Bake for about 40-45 minutes. It's ready if the inserted wooden stick comes out clean.
• Cool the cake completely in the pan upside down for 90-120 minutes. This will make sure the cake stays soft and fluffy while cooling.
• Whisk the heavy cream with sugar until hard peaks form. (Adjust the sugar to your taste.)
• Drain the pineapple, reserving the juice for later. Carefully fold in the crushed pineapple into the whipped cream. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• In a mixing bowl with paddle attachment beat cream cheese and butter on medium high speed.
• Add powdered sugar, pineapple juice and coconut extract. Continue to beat until nice and smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Spread the coconut flakes evenly on a cookie sheet. Bake it for 5-8 minutes at 350°F (177°C), or until nice and golden, stirring every few minutes.
• Cut the cooled cake horizontally and remove the top layer. Using a small knife, cut out a tunnel in the center of the bottom layer.
• Evenly soak the cake with a little bit of reserved pineapple juice (mix with rum, if desired).
• Fill the tunnel with pineapple whipped cream. Place the top layer and frost with cream cheese frosting. Then cover with toasted coconut flakes.
• If desired, pipe cream cheese frosting on the top and garnish with maraschino cherries.

• Stir constantly, boil hard for three minutes.
• Remove from heat and stir in pectin.
• Skim off any foam.
• Ladle into sterilized jars to within 1/4 inch of rim. Wipe rim clean.
• Apply lids and rings and tighten rings just fingertip tight.
• Process jars in boiling water bath canner for 5 minutes.
• Let sit at room temperature until set.
• Check seals -- center of lids should be indented.
• Refrigerate any unsealed jar up to 3 weeks.
• NOTE: Do NOT use coconut milk!
• This made 9 half pints and 1 quarter pint(1/2 cup).

PINA COLADA CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Make the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with liners. Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk the eggs, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, the brown sugar, coconut milk, vegetable oil and vanilla and coconut extracts in a large bowl. Add the flour mixture and whisk until smooth.
• Divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters of the way. Bake until the tops of the cupcakes are golden and spring back when gently pressed, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the rum, lime juice and the remaining 1 tablespoon granulated sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until the sugar dissolves. When the cupcakes are done, poke them all over with a toothpick and brush with the rum syrup while still warm. Let cool 5 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
• Meanwhile, make the frosting: Bring the pineapple juice to a boil in a small saucepan. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until syrupy and reduced to 2 to 3 tablespoons, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and refrigerate until completely cool. Beat the butter in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until creamy, about 1 minute. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in the confectioners' sugar and salt. Increase the speed to medium high and beat until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the vanilla and coconut extracts and beat 1 minute, then add the rum and the reduced pineapple juice and beat to combine. Spread the frosting on the cupcakes and top with the shredded coconut. Decorate with maraschino cherries and cocktail umbrellas.

VIRGIN PIñA COLADA

Steps:

• To make a mock rum syrup, put the dark brown muscovado sugar and 200ml water in a saucepan, stir well and heat gently until the sugar has dissolved. Add a few strips of skin from the pineapple, add the black peppercorns, cloves and a cinnamon stick, then bring to the boil. Turn off the heat and leave to infuse until cold. Strain into a jug and set aside in the fridge until needed. Will keep for up to three days.
• Pour the pineapple juice into a tall glass, and add the coconut milk and lime juice. Stir gently. Fill up the glass with a handful ice then slowly add 25ml of the syrup so it sinks to the bottom. Garnish with pineapple leaves and a tinned cherry.

• Note: This recipe is my adaptation of "The Authentic Piña Colada" printed on back of the Coco Lopez Real Cream of Coconut® can, which is the same as this but uses all (3 ounces) regular rum only ~ It's a great drink but I just love the inclusion of part coconut rum to make it even better!
