Steps:
- For cupcakes:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 20 standard (1/3-cup) muffin cups with paper liners. Sift first 5 ingredients into medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat butter and cream cheese in large bowl until smooth. Gradually beat in sugar, then vanilla extract and coconut flavoring. Beat in dry ingredients (batter will be stiff). Add eggs 1 at a time, beating to blend after each addition. Beat in milk, then stir in chocolate chips. Spoon scant 1/3 cup batter into each paper liner. Bake cupcakes until tester inserted into centers comes out clean, about 22 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes, then turn cupcakes out of pan and cool on rack.
- For frosting:
- Using electric mixer, beat butter, coconut milk powder, and salt in large bowl until smooth. Beat in vanilla extract and coconut flavoring. Beat in enough powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, to form very thick frosting. Beat in milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until frosting is thin enough to spread.
- Spread frosting on cupcakes. Sprinkle with flaked coconut, if desired. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Store cupcakes airtight at room temperature.
Tips:
- Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting. This will help the batter come together smoothly.
- Use a high-quality cocoa powder for the best flavor. A Dutch-process cocoa powder will give you a richer, more chocolatey flavor.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cupcake.
- Fill the cupcake liners only about 2/3 full. This will prevent them from overflowing while baking.
- Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can result in dry, crumbly cupcakes.
- Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.

These coconut chocolate chip cupcakes are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion.
