Food for Thought                                          

Surprisingly the cupcake came out extremely moist despite not using any eggs or oil.  The cake was a bit sticky, so I would recommend  eating this with the frosting.  The frosting is my favorite part, but that's because I love anything with cream cheese.  I would probably add shredded coconut on top because that's another thing I love, but I made this for Mother's Day, and not everyone is a coconut fan.  This recipe was so simple and easy to make - dumping everything together and mixing.  If you love pineapple and more pineapple, this is for you.  Thumbs up!
