Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for frosting)
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened shredded coconut (for frosting)
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream (for frosting)
  • extra shredded coconut (for coating)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  2. Cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the milk and vanilla extract.
  4. Combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and shredded coconut in another bowl. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Fill the cupcake liners about 2/3 full with the batter.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely.
  7. Mix the powdered sugar, heavy cream, and 2 tablespoons of shredded coconut until smooth for the frosting.
  8. Frost the cooled cupcakes and roll the tops in additional shredded coconut before serving.

Notes

Ensure butter is softened for easy mixing. Do not overmix the batter to keep cupcakes light.
