The cupcake batter is infused with a combination of canned coconut milk, coconut extract, and sweetened shredded coconut. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By using a combination of the three, the cupcakes are packed with coconut flavor without tasting artificial. To keep things simple, I also topped these with my favorite <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/coconut-frosting\/\">coconut frosting<\/a> that I shared earlier this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These homemade cupcakes are also perfect for Easter and other springtime gatherings.

Thai Kitchen unsweetened coconut milk is my personal favorite! <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Coconut Extract: <\/strong>You&#8217;ll add 1\/2 of a teaspoon to both the cupcake batter and the frosting. Do not add more than the recipe calls for, otherwise your cupcakes may wind up tasting artificial. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sweetened Shredded Coconut: <\/strong>Optional but highly recommended for adding pure coconut flavor and extra texture to the cupcakes. Sweetened shredded coconut is commonly found in the baking aisle. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cake Flour: <\/strong>Contains less protein than all-purpose flour, which makes for softer and fluffier cupcakes. If you don&#8217;t have any, I have a post showing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/homemade-cake-flour\/\">how to make homemade cake flour<\/a> using cornstarch and flour. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Egg Whites: <\/strong>This recipe calls for just the egg whites. You can either discard the yolks or use them in my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/key-lime-bars\/\">key lime pie bars<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/german-chocolate-cake-frosting\/\">German Chocolate cake frosting<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/small-batch-chocolate-chip-cookies\/\">small batch chocolate chip cookies<\/a>. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1360\" height=\"2040\" data-id=\"52760\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-1.jpg?resize=1360%2C2040&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"An overhead view of creamed butter and sugar in a glass mixing bowl. \" class=\"wp-image-52760\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-1.jpg?w=1360&amp;ssl=1 1360w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-1.jpg?resize=340%2C510&amp;ssl=1 340w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-1.jpg?resize=680%2C1020&amp;ssl=1 680w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-1.jpg?resize=768%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-1.jpg?resize=1024%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-1.jpg?resize=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-1.jpg?resize=560%2C840&amp;ssl=1 560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-1.jpg?resize=150%2C225&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1360\" height=\"2040\" data-id=\"52761\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-2.jpg?resize=1360%2C2040&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"An overhead view of coconut cupcake batter in a glass mixing bowl. \" class=\"wp-image-52761\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-2.jpg?w=1360&amp;ssl=1 1360w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-2.jpg?resize=340%2C510&amp;ssl=1 340w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-2.jpg?resize=680%2C1020&amp;ssl=1 680w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-2.jpg?resize=768%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-2.jpg?resize=1024%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-2.jpg?resize=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-2.jpg?resize=560%2C840&amp;ssl=1 560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Coconut-Cupcakes-Step-2.jpg?resize=150%2C225&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How To Make Coconut Cupcakes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Cream together the butter and sugar: <\/strong>I like using my stand mixer to cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

It&#8217;s much creamier than coconut milk that&#8217;s sold in a carton and has a stronger coconut flavor as well. <\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1706017750020\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can this cupcake recipe be used to make a layer cake? <\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">If you want to make an entire cake, I suggest following my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/coconut-cake\/\">coconut cake<\/a> recipe instead.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1706017846239\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can the cupcakes be made in advance? <\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Absolutely! The unfrosted cupcakes can be made up to two days in advance and stored in an airtight container on your counter. The frosting can also be made two days ahead of time and stored in the fridge. Frost the cupcakes before you plan on serving them. <br\/><br\/>Or, frost and assemble the cupcakes and store them in an airtight container in the fridge. Place the cupcakes on the counter an hour or two before serving so that they can come to room temperature. <\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1360\" height=\"2040\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Coconut-Cupcakes-2.jpg?resize=1360%2C2040&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"An overhead view of a coconut cupcake with a bite missing, laying on its side. \" class=\"wp-image-51890\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-lightmint-background-color has-background\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Baking Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Canned coconut milk will sometimes separate in the can. If needed, pour it into a large mixing bowl and whisk until well combined before measuring out what you need.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Coconut extract is incredibly potent, so don&#8217;t add more than the recipe calls for. If you do, the finished cupcakes will taste strongly of artificial coconut which isn&#8217;t what you want. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I used the Wilton 1M piping tip for the frosting.
