Preparation

Step 1

Spray a muffin tin generously with cooking spray.

Mix melted butter and brown sugar into a small bowl and mix vigorously until smooth. Pour the mixture into each empty space followed by 4 pineapples chunks. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, pineapple juice, vanilla, an egg and butter. Use an electric mixer to stir the ingredients until a batter forms. Use a spoon to dump the batter into each cup.

Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Allow the cupcakes to cool before gently removing them from the pan. Top with whipped cream and garnish with a cherry.
