Week 10: Mango Cupcakes with Buttercream Frosting and Coconut

Jayne's mango cupcakes were a crowd favorite!

The taste of summer in a cupcake – awesome!  I'm Jayne, and I made the mango cupcake with buttercream frosting and coconut.  The batter is a bit runny, but it makes a moist cake. 

 One jar of mango wedges mashed with a hand potato masher makes enough puree for the recipe – 12 cupcakes. 

My warning about the buttercream frosting – make sure your husband and/or kids aren't around so you can lick the bowl – its scrumptious. 

My only snag was turning my back a minute too long while toasting the coconut in the oven – I had to do that step over. 

All in all, a delicious cupcake that I will make again in the summer months.
