Pineapple Coconut Muffins

Desiccated coconut is coconut meat which has been shredded and then dried to remove as much moisture as possible. If desiccated coconut is not available, regular dried coconut can be used as a replacement. Tropical pineapple and coconut are combined for a truly tropical indulgence.
