Memorable coconut-papaya cupcakes that are as cute as they are delicious.
Ingredients:
  • 125g butter, chopped, at room temperature
  • 1 tsp coconut essence
  • 187.50 gm self-raising flour, sifted
  • 42.50 gm desiccated coconut
  • 85.80 gm buttermilk
  • 250.00 ml papaya, diced
  • 90g butter, chopped, at room temperature
  • 150.00 gm icing sugar, sifted
  • 21.25 gm desiccated coconut, lightly toasted
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 180C and prepare a 12-hole muffin pan by lining it with paper patty cases.
  • Using an electric mixer, blend butter, sugar, and essence until light and creamy. Gradually add eggs one at a time, ensuring thorough mixing after each addition.
  • Combine the flour, coconut, and buttermilk by gently folding them together. Gently mix in the papaya. Spoon the batter into the prepared pan until it's 2/3 full.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Prepare the coconut icing by whisking the butter in a bowl until it turns pale. Mix in the icing sugar and milk. Spread the icing over chilled cakes and sprinkle coconut on top for a delectable finish.
