Instructions

Bake Pineapple Bites

Start by heating your oven to 350°F and lining a mini muffin pan with those little cupcake liners, about 1½ inches wide. In a big bowl, mix together the pineapple with its juice, cake mix, gelatin, eggs, water, and oil until everything is well combined. Scoop about a tablespoon of the batter into each lined cup. Pop the pan in the oven and bake for around 10 to 12 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean when poked in the center. Let the bites cool completely on a wire rack before adding any frosting. Once cool, pipe a small flower of frosting on top of each one and finish them off with a few sprinkles for a fun touch.
