Lemon Coconut Cupcakes

• Cupcakes:
• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 pinch salt
• 5 tablespoons butter, cut into chunks
• 2/3 cup milk
• 1 cup white sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 egg yolk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup shredded coconut
• Frosting:
• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup confectioners' sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
• 1/4 cup shredded coconut, or to taste

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
2. Mix flour, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl.
3. Heat 5 tablespoons butter and milk together in a saucepan over low heat until butter is melted, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
4. Beat white sugar, eggs, egg yolk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract together in a bowl using an electric hand mixer on low until mixture is smooth and thickened. Slowly pour flour mixture into sugar-egg mixture while mixing with the electric mixer until just incorporated. Slowly add butter-milk mixture; beat until just combined. Fold in 1/2 cup shredded coconut. Fill muffin cups with batter.
5. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
6. Beat softened butter and cream cheese together in a bowl using an electric mixer on medium. Gradually beat confectioners' sugar into creamed butter mixture on low until incorporated. Beat in 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract and lemon zest until smooth and creamy. Spread frosting over cooled cupcakes; sprinkle about 1 teaspoon shredded coconut onto each cupcake.
