Christmas Coconut Cupcakes

I wanted to use desiccated coconut to create the look of snow on cupcakes for Christmas. So, I decided to make some coconut cupcakes.

These coconut cupcakes are light, fluffy and moist with a delicious coconut flavour.  To make it feel like Christmas, I made some Christmas trees using royal icing, chocolate sticks and sprinkles of course.

These cupcakes are a fun idea and an easy bake for Christmas.  I would recommend that if you wanted to add the Christmas tree toppers that you make them the day before so the royal icing dries completely.  Otherwise the royal icing trees may break if not fully dried.

Happy Baking xo

Christmas Coconut Cupcakes

Ingredients

· 1 cup self-raising flour
· ½ cup desiccated coconut
· ½ cup caster sugar
· 2 eggs
· 160ml coconut milk
· 125 grams butter, melted & cooled

Coconut buttercream icing

· 60 grams butter, room temperature
· 1½ cups icing sugar
· 2-3 tablespoons coconut milk

Decorations

· Shredded coconut
· Royal icing
· Chocolate or pretzel sticks
· Sprinkles

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 170°C.

2. Spray with oil or place cupcake patty cases into a 12-hole cupcake tin.

3. Place flour, sugar and desiccated coconut into a bowl. Mix and make a well in the centre.

4. Using a fork whisk eggs, coconut milk and melted butter. Add to dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined. Do not over mix.

5. Spoon the mixture evenly amongst the 12 patty cases.

6. Bake in oven for 20 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the cakes comes out clean. Remove from oven and allow the cupcakes to cool before icing and decorating them.

7. Place butter into a large bowl. Beat on low speed until butter is fluffy. Add 1 cup of icing sugar, 2 tablespoons of coconut milk. Beat until combined and add the remaining ½ cups of icing sugar.

8. Increase speed to medium and beat until light and fluffy (this will take a few minutes). Add more milk if the buttercream seems too stiff.

Decorating

9. Using a spatula spread some coconut buttercream onto the cupcake and sprinkle some shredded coconut on top to create snow.  Alternatively, you can dip the cupcake into a bowl of shredded coconut.

10. To make the Christmas trees. Place chocolate or pretzel sticks onto some baking paper and pipe some coloured royal icing over it and add sprinkles. Allow them to dry and place onto cupcakes.

Tips

· Allow the melted butter to cool before adding eggs as it may cook the eggs if the butter is hot.

· The Christmas trees toppers should be made the day before to allow them to dry and harden in time to use.

· Allow cupcakes to cool completely before icing and decorating.
