My Mom and I love coconut, and I had a giant bag of it in my pantry practically screaming, "Andee! Andee! Use me!!"
So, I did.
I went with dark chocolate cupcakes. I love dark chocolate because the flavor is a little more rich. The coconut is a strong flavor, so you need something to balance that out. Of course, any cake flavor would probably work...
I decided to make a coconut cream for the center of the cupcakes...
All I used was a little coconut, sugar, and whipped cream from my fridge. It was really sweet, but delicious. I used the "cone method" to put the filling in the cupcakes and replaced the lid before adding the frosting and decorations.
I went with plain vanilla frosting because I wanted to roll the cupcakes into leftover coconut. Here are the results!

WindySydney began as an online journal detailing my exit from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Since leaving the Mormon Church, I have come to the conclusion that religion does more harm than good. I have also become an atheist, looking for logic and reason instead of accepting things on faith.
I also blog about things going on in my life. I am learning photography, I have a severe addiction to diet coke, I am a proud vegetarian, and I have two of the cutest cats in the world. Life is officially an adventure without the magical fairy-tale ending. I plan on enjoying it.
