Directions

1

For the cupcakes:
2

In a large bowl, add the cake mix, pudding mix, and sugar. To these dry ingredients, add the water, oil, sour cream, eggs and coconut extract. Mix with electric beaters for about 3-4 minutes on high.
3

Pour your batter into lined cupcake pan. I like to make small cupcakes, so depending on the size of your cupcakes, you will need to cook at 350F and watch until they are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean (about 20 minutes).
4

Then let cool and frost the cupcakes with your cream cheese frosting.

To make the frosting:

Soften the butter and cream cheese, add the vanilla, and then slowly beat in the powdered sugar until you get the right consistency. I like to sprinkle coconut on top of the cupcakes. In the picture, I dyed the frosting pink for a birthday party. Enjoy!
