Little Tropical Pineapple Coconut Trees
These coconut cakes hide pieces of pineapple and, if you like, a dash of rum, before being glazed to look like little snowy trees. The oiled Cornets Party cones release the cakes easily, and the recipe also works in the microwave.

Ingredients
Method
Heat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F).
Drain the pineapple and dice it finely. Mix it with the egg, sugar, rum, flour, baking powder, 45 ml (3 tbsp) of the coconut and 15 ml (1 tbsp) of the oil.
Pour the rest of the oil into the Tupperware Cornets Party cones, turn to coat the inside and tip out the excess.
Fill the cones, stand them point down in a deep dish and bake for about 16 minutes (or microwave for about 3 minutes at 360 W). Leave to cool for 10 minutes before easing out.
Stir the icing sugar into the lemon juice for a thick glaze, spoon it over the trees and dust with the remaining coconut.
