Quick And Easy Coconut Cupcakes
- 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
- 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.
