CUPCAKES
15 1/2 oz all purpose flour
1 1/4 tsp baking soda
1 1/4 tsp salt
1 1/4 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 c vegetable oil
13 oz granulated sugar
1 1/4 c buttermilk
3 eggs
2 Tbsp plus 2 teaspoons liquid red food coloring (not gel)
1 1/4 tsp vinegar
1 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/8 c water
CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
1 1/2 lb cream cheese, at room temperature
1 lb butter, at room temperature
2 lb powdered sugar, sifted
1 Tbsp pure vanilla extract
red nonpareils, for ganish

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven 350 degrees F.
  • 2. Sift together flour, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder into a bowl and set aside.
  • 3. In a mixer fitted with paddle attachment, mix oil, sugar, and buttermilk until combined. Add eggs, food coloring, vinegar, vanilla and water and mix well. Add the dry ingredients a little bit at a time and mix on low, scraping down sides occasionally, and mix until just combined. Be sure not to over mix, or the batter will come out tough.
  • 4. Line 2 6-cup jumbo cupcake pans with jumbo paper liners, scoop the batter into the liners and bake at 350 degrees F for 30-40 minutes or until the toothpick comes out clean. Let cool.
  • 5. Whip the butter and cream cheese together in a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment until creamed. Gradually add powdered sugar to the mixture and scrape down the bowl as needed. Add the vanilla and mix until combined.
  • 6. The frosting can be used right away, or stored in the refrigerator up to a week.
  • 7. Frost cooled cupcakes with the cream cheese frosting. Garnish with nonpareils.

Provided by jenniferj

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/3 C flour
1 t baking soda
1 t salt
1 C vegetable oil
1 C buttermilk
3 eggs
2 1/2 t vanilla extract, divided
2 t almond extract
1 1/3 C sugar
1 3/4 C shredded sweetened coconut, plus extra for decorating the frosted cupcake

Steps:

  • Mix all in order. Fill cupcake liners 1/2 way. Bake at 350 ndegrees for 20-25 minutes or until light brown.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingrédients, as they blend together more easily and create a smoother batter.
  • Do not beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, as this can make the cupcakes tough. Instead, beat them until they are foamy and have soft peaks.
  • Fill the cupcake liners only 2/3 full, as the cupcakes will rise during baking. If you fill them too full, they may overflow and make a mess.
  • Bake the cupcakes in a preheated oven. This helps to ensure that they rise evenly and do not sink in the middle.
  • Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting them. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Auntie Em's Coconut Cupcakes are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their moist and fluffy texture, sweet coconut flavor, and creamy frosting, these cupcakes are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
