Ingredients

• 10 pineapples rings in juice
• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.75 cups salted butter , melted
• 0.67 cups white sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 0.5 cups coconut cream
• 0.25 cups whole milk
• 1 tablespoon coconut extract
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 10 mini cake molds.
2. 2 Drain pineapple rings, reserving 1/4 cup juice.
3. 3 Combine flour and baking powder in a small bowl.
4. 4 Combine 3/4 cup melted butter and white sugar in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until well blended, about 3 minutes. Add eggs one at a time. Mix in reserved 1/4 cup pineapple juice, 1/2 cup coconut cream, milk, 1 tablespoon coconut extract, and vanilla extract. Add flour mixture gradually, mixing until batter is smooth.
5. 5 Mix brown sugar and 1/3 cup melted butter together in a bowl until smooth. Spoon into the bottom of the cake molds. Place 1 pineapple ring in each mold. Place 1 maraschino cherry in the center of each ring.
6. 6 Divide batter among cake molds using an ice cream scoop.
7. 7 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 to 22 minutes. Cool to room temperature, about 20 minutes. Run a knife around the rims to loosen cakes; invert gently onto a plate.
8. 8 Pour heavy cream into a chilled metal bowl. Add cream of tartar. Beat with an electric mixer until almost holding peaks. Add confectioners' sugar gradually, continuing to beat until soft peaks form. Fold in 1/4 pineapple juice, 3 tablespoons coconut cream, and 1 tablespoon coconut extract.
9. 9 Serve whipped cream alongside cakes.
