Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Line muffin pan with paper liners.

• Pour batter into prepared cups.
• Bake for 30 minutes or until toothpick comes out of center completely clean.

• For glaze:.
• Melt butter in saucepan.
• Stir in 1/4 cup of the rum and sugar.
• Boil 5 minutes, stirring constantly until thickened. Remove from heat.
• Stir in remaining 1/4 cup of rum.
• For Frosting:.
• Before starting, place your stainless steel bowl and the arms for mixer into the freezer, for about 5 minutes. The cold bowl and arms form stiffer peaks in your frosting.
• In large bowl, with mixer at medium-low speed, beat sugar, butter, vanilla, and 4 tablespoons rum until blended.
• Increase speed to medium-high; beat until light and fluffy, occasionally scraping bowl with rubber spatula.
• Beat in more rum as needed for desire consistency for frosting.
• To finish cupcakes:.
• Dip tops of cupcakes into Butter Rum Glaze and allow excess to drop off before placing back down. This part can get a bit messy.
• Pipe on dollops of frosting, I usually leave some of the cupcake showing cause the glaze is so shiny and pretty.
• Drizzle a small amount of remaining drizzle over top of frosting. Sprinkle with remaining pecan and coconut.
