Pina Colada Frosties Recipes

PINA COLADA FROSTIES

Steps:

• Line 12 muffin cups with paper baking cups. In a large bowl, combine whipped topping and cream of coconut until well blended. Add crushed pineapple, cherries, and coconut. Spoon into baking cups, cover, and freeze for at least 3 hours before serving
• Note This treat has a tropical taste, so why not make it look tropical, too? Before freezing, sprinkle each frosty with toasted flaked coconut and top with a whole cherry. Before serving, top each with a paper umbrella...and get ready for the smiles!

PIÑA COLADA CREAM CHEESE FROSTING RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• Add the butter to the mixing bowl and beat until smooth. Add the cream cheese that has been cut into small to medium size pieces, beating with the butter until well blended and smooth. Add the rum and coconut extracts. Slowly add the powdered sugar, beating until smooth. Do not beat above medium speed or for too long. The longer you beat the softer the frosting becomes. If it becomes too soft to pipe, just refrigerate for a short while. Use the frosting while it is still chilled. If it becomes too soft, refrigerate until it firms up a bit or put in the freezer for 5 minutes or so to return to a good piping consistency.

PINA COLADA CAKE & CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Steps:

• 1. Grease & flour coat a 9"x13" baking pan. Prepare white cake mix using 4 egg whites and oil & water as indicated on the box instructions. Beat the cake mix on high for 90 seconds.
• 2. Open can of crushed pineapple and press lid in to squeeze juice into a measuring cup. You should extract approx. 2/3 cup of juice. Set this aside for the frosting.
• 3. Add crushed pineapple and 1/2 a bag of the shredded coconut to the cake mix and blend together on low speed and then beat at higher speed for 90 seconds.
• 4. Pour batter into prepared pan and place in center of pre-heated oven at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes - do the toothpick test to verify doneness. Remove cake from oven and let cool in pan on cooling rack for 15 minutes. Then remove cake from pan to cookie sheet or serving platter and let cool completely. While it's cooling, make your frosting.
• 5. Cream Cheese Frosting: Blend together the softened cream cheese, pineapple juice, 1/2 stick butter, egg white, & teaspoon of Coconut extract. Once creamy, begin to add in sifted 10x sugar (5-6 cups) on low speed. The frosting will be on runny side, don't panic. Once mixed, place the bowl of frosting in a cold fridge for about 30 minutes before applying it to the cake. The yield of frosting will be quite a lot, so I use what I want to frost the cake and freeze the rest for the next time I make this cake. Coat the cake with the frosting and sprinkle some more shredded coconut on top if desired. Cake must be refrigerated at all times because of the cream cheese based frosting. Enjoy!
