Add a photoA little tropical, a little chocolate decadence - who could ask for anything more. This is a lovely dessert and perfect for a lush Summer gathering! This recipe makes 6 large cupcakes or 12 small ones. I suggest using the large pan for a better presentation!

- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- Mix together dry ingredients in mixing bowl.
- Add shortening, juice, and vanilla and beat for about 1 minute on medium speed.
- Add eggs and beat for another minute.
- Scrape down bowl and beat on high speed for 1 1/2 minutes until blended nicely and batter is smooth. (This batter is fairly wet and makes very moist cupcakes.)
- Line muffin pan with paper cups and spoon batter into each cup until about 3/4 full.
- Bake for 20-24 minutes or until toothpick or cake tester inserted in center comes out smooth.
- Cool for 5 minutes in pan then remove to wire rack to cool completely.
- Ganache:
- Using a small saucepan, heat cream over medium heat until just boiling. Watch closely, as cream will boil over quickly and scorch!
- Pour cream over milk chocolate chips in small bowl. Allow milk to begin to melt chocolate for a moment then whisk mixture until smooth.
- Stir in coconut rum.
- Allow ganache to cool just slightly in bowl.
- Dip each of the cupcakes into the ganache covering the top of the cupcake but being careful not to dip the paper liner or sides into the chocolate ganache.
- Sprinkle top of cupcake with a bit of flaked toasted coconut.
- Allow to cool completely before serving.
