Key Lime Coconut Cupcakes with White Chocolate Frosting image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 2h10m

Yield 12 to 14 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 20

3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 heaping teaspoon grated key lime zest
1 1/2 tablespoons key lime juice (bottled or freshly squeezed)
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 1/3 cups loosely packed sweetened coconut flakes (3.5 ounces)
5 ounces good quality white chocolate, chopped into small chucks
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
3 1/2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
Pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon key lime juice (bottled or freshly squeezed)
1/4 cup sour cream
Finely grated key lime zest, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat 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 extract, key lime zest and juice and mix well. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In 5 parts total, alternately add the dry ingredients and the buttermilk to the batter, beginning and ending with the dry. Mix until just combined. Fold the coconut into the cupcake batter.
  • Line a muffin pan with paper liners and fill each liner almost to the top with batter. A spring loaded 1/4 cup ice cream scoop works great for this and ensures the cupcakes are all the same size. Bake for 25 minutes or until the tops begin to brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Remove cupcakes from oven and allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes and then transfer cupcakes to a baking rack to cool completely.
  • While the cupcakes are cooling you can make the frosting. In a small heat proof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, carefully and slowly melt the white chocolate. Remove from heat and let cool until just slightly warm. Meanwhile, in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter until light and fluffy. With the mixer on low, gradually add the powdered sugar until well combined. Add the salt, vanilla extract, key lime juice, and sour cream and mix until very smooth. Add the melted white chocolate and mix just until incorporated.
  • Frost the cupcakes and garnish with a bit of grated key lime zest. Enjoy!

LIME, WHITE CHOCOLATE AND COCONUT MUFFINS



Lime, White Chocolate and Coconut Muffins image

Found this on a blog that was running a contest for cupcakes and muffins. This was one lady's creation. The title alone caught my eye...or should I say tastebuds!

Provided by Wasteoftym

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 20m

Yield 6 large muffins

Number Of Ingredients 11

150 g plain flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 medium egg
40 g caster sugar
110 ml milk
50 g butter, melted and cooled slightly
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 lime
80 g white chocolate, chopped roughly
1/2 cup desiccated coconut

Steps:

  • Grate the zest of the lime and set aside.
  • Cut the outer pith from the lime and then carefully slide the knife under one membrane and gently remove a segment of lime flesh.
  • Continue until all lime flesh has been extracted into a bowl for later use.
  • NB. This isn't as hard as it sounds as the lime membranes are quite fibrous. Alternatively you could just squeeze the limes and use the juice.
  • Now sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a large bowl.
  • In a separate large mixing bowl, mix together the egg, sugar, milk, butter and vanilla.
  • Return the dry ingredients to the sifter and sift again over the egg mixture (Delia says this double sifting is essential, and hey, Delia always knows best!).
  • Quickly fold the flour into the egg mixture, taking no more than 15 seconds, as over-mixing will prevent them rising.
  • Add the lime zest, lime flesh, white chocolate and coconut (or whatever variation you prefer), combining with minimum stirring.
  • Spoon into muffin trays and bake at 200C on a high shelf.
  • Large muffins should take 30 minutes, smaller mini-muffins only about 20 minutes.
  • Makes 6 large muffins or 20 mini-muffins.

Tips for Making Lime, White Chocolate, and Coconut Muffins:

- Use fresh limes for the best flavor. - Finely zest the limes to avoid any bitterness. - Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a tender muffin. - Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, to the butter and sugar mixture. - In a separate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, salt. - Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, alternating with buttermilk. This will help to prevent the batter from becoming too dry. - Fold in the chopped white chocolate and coconut. - Fill muffin cups 2/3 full. Do not overfill them or the muffins will rise too much and overflow. - Bake the muffins in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. - Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
