INDIVIDUAL COCONUT & PINEAPPLE UPSIDE-DOWN CAKES

Steps:

• First, make the topping. In a small pan heat the butter, sugar and rum (if using), on a low heat until dissolved, bubble for a few mins until slightly thickened. Divide between 6 really well-greased, 200ml ramekins. Add a pineapple ring with a glacé cherry in the middle to each.
• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Beat together the butter and sugar with an electric whisk until pale and fluffy. Gradually beat in the eggs, then fold in the dry ingredients. Finally stir in the milk and divide the mixture between the ramekins. Put them on a baking tray and cook for 25-30 mins until risen, golden and springy to the touch.
• To serve, turn the ramekins upsidedown onto a plate or a bowl and tap gently to release. Serve with custard.

• In another large mixing bowl, beat the egg whites until they are white and foamy, about 1 minute. Add the confectioners' sugar and continue beating until stiff but not dry, about 2 minutes. Scrape off the beaters and, without washing them, place in the flour mixture and beat at low speed just until blended. Gently fold the flour mixture into the egg whites.

MINI PINEAPPLE UPSIDE DOWN CAKES RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 20 regular-size muffin tins with non-stick cooking spray (I like Baker's Joy for baking like this).
• Combine cake mix, pudding mix, sour cream, vegetable oil, eggs, and reserved pineapple juice in a large bowl. Use an electric mixer (or you can beat quickly by hand) for about 2 minutes or until it's completely mixed together.
• In another bowl, mix together melted butter and brown sugar.
• Cut each pineapple slice into four pieces.
• To assemble cupcakes, spoon a heaping teaspoon of the brown sugar mixture into the bottom of the tin. Place a cherry in the center (rounded side down) and then place 2 pineapple slices on top. Measure out 1/4 cup of cake batter and pour on top of pineapple slices.
• Bake for 20 minutes or until toothpick placed in the center of the cupcakes comes out clean. Let cupcakes cool for 5 minutes, then run a knife around the edges of the cupcakes to loosen them and remove from cupcake pan.
• Serve warm.
