My current craving: cupcakes that have the flavors of my favorite cocktails...
Piña Colada style, or rather "virgin" Piña Colada, since I didn't add rum.
These cupcakes are particularly fragrant since they combine a soft cake flavored with coconut and pineapple, a heart of mixed pineapple, and a creamy coconut frosting...
I will transport you to the Tropics!
Ingredients
- 120 g soft butter, melted
- 1 whole egg
- 1 Egg yolk
- 150 g light brown sugar
- 120 g pineapple juice
- 120 g coconut milk
- 1 tsp liquid vanilla extract
- A few drops of coconut flavor
- 190 g of flour
- 1,5 cc of baking powder
- a pinch of salt
- +
- 120 g pineapple in syrup
- +
- 150 g by Philadelphia®
- 250 g of mascarpone
- 1 tsp liquid vanilla extract
- A few drops of coconut flavor
- 150 g icing sugar
Prepare in advance
- Cake base: preheat the oven to 180 ° c traditional heat. In a bowl, combine the whole egg and the yolk, the brown sugar, the pineapple juice, the coconut milk, the liquid vanilla extract, a few drops of coconut flavoring, then the melted butter. In another container, mix the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, salt. Incorporate the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients in several batches (mix well in each). Place cupcake boxes in a rigid muffin pan, then line the boxes with the dough, no more than 3/4. Bake for 23 minutes, the top should be golden.
- Pineapple heart: drain the pineapple and put it in a blender. Hollow out each cupcake by hollowing out the heart (but keeping the hat!) And garnish with mixed pineapple. Put the hat back on each cupcake.
- Creamy coconut frosting: In the bowl of the food processor, combine the Philadelphia® and mascarpone. Add the vanilla and a few drops of coconut flavoring. Gradually incorporate the icing sugar. Whisk until you obtain a homogeneous and smooth mixture. Line a pastry bag with this icing and decorate the cupcakes.
Notes
Option: toast coconut shavings on a baking sheet for a few moments under the grill of your oven and decorate the cupcakes!

This is awesome, even more things to test and taste!!

SUPER BEAUTIFUL!! I'm making the recipe this weekend but with 2 toppings for the pineapple and coconut icing ;)! I wanted to know which nozzle do you use please?
I made them this weekend! What can I say except that they are simply delicious! My guests loved them, including those who are not necessarily fans of coconut :-) Thank you very much for sharing this recipe! And your site is great :-)
Thank you ! Glad to have new coconut fans :)
I didn't succeed with the cream, it remains too liquid, too bad. I tried to put it in the freezer, it doesn't work.
I have tried this recipe 4 times already and each time I have been told that these are my best cupcakes. They are delicious. The frosting is sweet, wonderful.
I hate coconut in general except in savory dishes but this is the only pastry I eat with grated coconut as a topping.
