To make these cupcakes, you will need the following ingredients:

- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- 1/2 cup crushed pineapple, drained
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut

For the frosting:

- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup coconut milk
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut, toasted
To make the cupcakes, preheat your oven to 350°F and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Next, add in the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the coconut milk. Mix until just combined, then fold in the crushed pineapple and shredded coconut. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
Bake the cupcakes for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting.
To make the frosting, cream together the butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the coconut milk and vanilla extract, and beat until smooth. Frost the cooled cupcakes with the frosting, then sprinkle with toasted shredded coconut.
