Time 25m

Yield 24 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (18 1/4 ounce) box white cake mix
1 1/3 cups water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
2 teaspoons coconut extract
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut, finely chopped
1 (16 ounce) container cream cheese frosting
sweetened flaked coconut

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Line muffin tin with paper cupcake liners and set aside.
  • In a bowl, using an electric mixer, mix the cake mix, water, oil, eggs, and coconut extract on medium speed until moistened and smooth. Stir in the chopped coconut.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the muffin tins (the batter will nearly fill each liner to the top).
  • Bake until the muffins spring back when lightly touched, or a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 15 to 18 minutes.
  • Transfer to a rack to cool.
  • Spread the frosting on the cooled cupcakes at room temperature and sprinkle generously with flaked coconut.
