COCONUT AND RASPBERRY SWIRL COOKIES

Categories     dessert

Time 1h50m

Yield 18 to 20 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2/3 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
1 cup fresh raspberries

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
  • Combine the butter and sugar in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on low speed then gradually increase the speed to medium, until lightly and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  • With the machine running on medium speed, add the eggs, one at a time, and beat until thoroughly combined after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, as necessary. Add the vanilla and almond extracts.
  • Slowly add in the flour and salt with the machine running on low speed and mix until the dough comes together and no streaks of flour remain, about 1 minute. Add the coconut and mix on low speed just until combined, about 30 seconds.
  • Fold in the raspberries with a silicone or rubber spatula. They will begin to break but try not to overwork the dough to keep them intact as much as possible.
  • Scoop the dough with a medium (2-inch) ice cream scoop, flattening the dough against the bowl, and place 6 scoops at least 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake 1 sheet of cookies at a time for 6 minutes then rotate the sheet and continue baking until the bottoms of the cookies are golden brown and the tops have set, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining dough.
  • Serve or store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.

1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 tsp pure almond extract
1 tsp coconut extract

  • 1. Make the Cupcakes:
  • 2. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar on high speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. With the mixer on low speed, add the eggs, 1 at a time, scraping down the bowl after each addition. Add the vanilla, almond and coconut extracts and mix well.
  • 3. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In 3 parts, alternately add the dry ingredients and the buttermilk to the batter, beginning and ending with the dry. Mix until just combined. Fold in 7 ounces of coconut.
  • 4. Line a muffin pan with paper liners. Fill each liner to the top with batter. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, until the tops are brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Remove to a baking rack and cool completely.
  • 5. Make the frosting:
  • 6. 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. Frost the cupcakes and sprinkle with the remaining coconut.
  • 7. For Raspberry Filling:
  • 8. Add the cornstarch to the water and stir so it melts. Then add everything into a medium size pot and bring to a boil until thickens. Use a whisk to mix the berries up. Let it simmer for 15 minutes stirring often. Strain the mixture through a sieve.
  • 9. Make a hole in the top of the cupcake and then fill with raspberry filling. Add 2 tablespoons of the berry sauce to the frosting. Do not stir! Just add it to the piping bag and pipe. The frosting will come out with a nice raspberry swirl!

Time 1h30m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon baking powder
2 cups flaked coconut
1 ½ cups margarine, softened
¾ cup brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup water
¾ cup raspberry jam

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Tips:

  • To achieve a smooth batter, ensure the butter and eggs are at room temperature before mixing. This allows them to blend seamlessly and creates a velvety texture.
  • For perfectly swirled cupcakes, use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl the batter after filling the cupcake liners. This creates a beautiful marbled effect.
  • To prevent the cupcakes from drying out, avoid over-mixing the batter. Over-mixing can result in dense, dry cupcakes.
  • For an extra burst of coconut flavor, toast the coconut flakes before adding them to the batter. This enhances their aroma and adds a delightful crunch.
  • If you don't have raspberries on hand, you can substitute them with other berries like blueberries, strawberries, or blackberries.
  • For a decadent touch, top the cupcakes with a dollop of whipped cream, cream cheese frosting, or a sprinkling of powdered sugar.

Conclusion:

These Coconut Raspberry Swirl Cupcakes offer a delightful combination of flavors and textures, making them perfect for any occasion. With their moist coconut cake batter, tangy raspberry swirl, and sweet frosting, these cupcakes are sure to be a hit.
