FULL HOUSE: COCONUT CUPCAKES, LEMON CURD FILLING, COCONUT-LEMON BUTTERCREAM FROSTING, TOASTED COCONUT
Steps:
- For the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a muffin pan with 15 regular-size cupcake liners.
- In a medium mixing bowl, sift together the cake flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk together thoroughly.
- In the bowl of an electric stand mixer with the whisk attachment, whisk the egg whites until foamy. Gradually add 1/2 cup sugar and whisk until the eggs whites form a soft meringue. Remove the egg white mixture from the mixing bowl and set aside.
- Using the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and remaining 1 cup sugar. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the flour and coconut milk, alternating between the two, beginning and ending with the flour. Once all the flour has been added, mix until smooth. Scrape down the sides and beat in the egg white mixture until smooth.
- Fill the cupcake liners two-thirds full and bake until the tops are golden brown and the cupcakes are baked through, about 25 minutes. Rotate the cupcake pans halfway through the baking process.
- For the lemon curd: In a microwave-safe bowl, whisk together the sugar and eggs. Stir in the butter, lemon zest and lemon juice and mix until smooth. Microwave on high for 1 minute and stir. Repeat 5 times, or until thick.
- For the buttercream: In the bowl of an electric stand mixer using the paddle attachment, cream the butter until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and beat until smooth. Beat in the extracts and lemon zest and beat until light and fluffy.
- For the coconut: While cupcakes are baking, spread the shredded coconut over a sheet pan and toast and until light brown, about 7 minutes.
- To assemble: Once the cupcakes are cool, core out the middle of each cupcake and generously fill with the lemon curd. Fill a pastry bag equipped with desired pastry tip with coconut-lemon buttercream. Pipe the buttercream over the top of each cupcake and sprinkle with toasted coconut.
LEMON COCONUT CUPCAKES
This is a great cupcake recipe that I created. Lemon and coconut together is such a great combo. If you want, you can substitute lime zest for the lemon zest in the frosting, for lime coconut cupcakes instead. You can also add no zest at all to make regular coconut cupcakes.

Steps:
- 1. Make cupcake batter according to package directions and fold in coconut after batter is mixed. Bake according to package directions. Cool Cupcakes when done.
- 2. CREAM CHEESE FROSTING: Meanwhile, make the frosting. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, on low speed, cream together the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla and almond extracts. Add the confectioners' sugar and mix until smooth.
- 3. LEMON CURD: Add enough water to a medium saucepan to come about 1-inch up the side. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Meanwhile, combine egg yolks and sugar in a medium size metal bowl and whisk until smooth, about 1 minute. Add lemon juice and zest to egg mixture and whisk until smooth. Once water reaches a simmer, reduce heat to low and place bowl on top of saucepan. Bowl should be large enough to fit on top of saucepan without touching the water. Whisk until thickened, approximately 8 minutes, or until mixture is light yellow and coats the back of a spoon. Remove promptly from heat and stir in butter a piece at a time, allowing each addition to melt before adding the next. Remove to a clean container and cover by laying a layer of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the curd. Allow curd to cool or store in refrigerator. Curd will keep refrigerated for up to 2 weeks.
- 4. TO ASSEMBLE: Fill a plastic pastry bag fitted with a medium-sized round tip with the cooled lemon curd. Gently poke the pastry bag tip into the center top of the cupcakes and fill with a small amount of curd. If needed, wipe off any excess curd from the tops with a clean paper towel.
- 5. Frost cupcakes with cream cheese frosting, top with shredded coconut and top with a raspberry. Peel paper back and take a big bite and enjoy and be ready for your mouth to zing!
