Coconut Cream Cupcakes with Toasted Coconut Cream Cheese Frosting


I signed up to make cupcakes for a church party this week. The recipe that immediately came to mind was Picky Palate's recipe for Coconut Cream Cupcakes. This was a recipe that I had printed off a few months ago but never made because, although I love coconut, most of my family is not crazy about it. So this was the perfect opportunity, and the perfect choice. I am in love with this cupcake.

The recipe was very easy to make. The cupcakes were moist and delicious. I couldn't find a coconut cake mix, so I used a white cake mix and substituted coconut pudding mix. I was a little nervous about the frosting because it was so thick and I wondered if it would spread well, but it was perfect.

Thanks Jenny for sharing another great recipe!

Hi Barbara,
I love these cupcakes, yours turned out great! I think it's time I whip these up again. My family is the same way about coconut, I'm the only one in the house who loves it!!

Thanks for the comments. They were a big hit at the party. They were put on a platter with cupcakes others had made,some of the frosting on the other cupcakes got sort of runny looking sitting on the table. Mine looked so great!
