This is a combination/variation on my coconut and lemon cake recipes. It goes great with mango-lime filling and coconut cream cheese frosting.

Time 45m

Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups white sugar
1 cup butter
4 eggs
1 tablespoon coconut extract
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup buttermilk
½ cup fresh lime juice
2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
2 tablespoons freshly grated lime zest

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 36 cupcake cups with paper liners.
  • Beat sugar and butter together in the bowl of an electric stand mixer until fluffy, about 10 minutes. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time, adding coconut extract and vanilla extract with the last egg.
  • Combine flour, 1 tablespoon plus 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, and nutmeg in another bowl. Beat into the egg mixture until thoroughly combined; beat in buttermilk and lime juice. Stir in coconut and lime zest.
  • Fill each of the prepared cupcake cups with about 1/4 cup of batter using a large cookie scoop.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool before serving.

These cupcakes were a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor was still good. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
