Coconut Cream Pie Cupcakes Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by kmad

Number Of Ingredients 20

Cake
1 box Duncan Hindes Coconut Supreme Cake
1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
4 eggs
1 cup sourcream
1 1/3 cups milk , I use whole but I'm assuming you could you a lesser fat milk
1/3 cup oil
1 4oz box Coconut Cream Pie instant pudding
1/2-1 cup coconut depending on your personal taste
2 tsp coconut flavoring, I prefer McCormick
Cream Pie Filling-
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 AP flour
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups milk , once again I use whole
3 egg yolks , reserve the whites for the meringue
2 tbl butter
2 tsp vanilla
2 tsp coconut extract, flaked coconut can be used in place of the extract if you are using it in a cake, for the cupcakes you'll have to use the extract so the filling can be piped into the cupcakes.

Steps:

  • Meringue- 3 egg whites 4 tbl sugar 1/2 tsp vanilla Instructions Cake- Sift dry ingredients together, combine with wet and mix on medium for 2 mins. Bake in cupcake tin for 16-18 minutes at 325, or until they spring back when touched. Set aside to cool. Makes 3-4 dozen cupcakes depending on how full you fill the tins. Cream Pie Filling- In top of double boiler combine flour, sugar and salt, add milk and stir until smooth(it helps to add a little milk at a time and stir each time ins. tead of the whole amount at once) Cook over not in boiling water for 10 min. or until thick. Stirring almost constantly to avoid lumps. Once the 10 mins is up dip a spoon in the mixture if it coats the back without dripping of sliding off it is ready, also taste it , there should be no more raw flour taste. Remove it from the heat. In another bowl beat the 3 eggs slightly, while still stirring the eggs add 1/2 the mixture and mix until smooth. Then return egg mixture to rest of mixture and place on double boiler again. Cook another 3 mins until thickened, remove from heat and stir in 2 tbls butter and the vanilla and coconut extract. Let cool slightly and then cover with plastic wrap, making sure the plastic wrap touches the top of the pie filling, this will prevent it from forming a skin in the fridge. Refrigerate until cold. Meringue- Beat egg whites until frothy, sprinkle in sugar 1 tbs at a time whipping in between each addition until stiff peaks form ,careful not to over beat, mix in 1/2 tsp vanilla. Or you can use your own trusted meringue recipe. Once filling is chilled use a tip 230 and fill a piping bag with the filling, fill the cupcakes as full as you can with out them falling apart. I can usually fit 5 fillings in them. Once they are full pipe some meringue onto each one, sprinkle with a bit of coconut and bake in the oven at 350 until lightly browned. You can also brown them individually with a crème brulee torch.

These cupcakes were a complete disaster. The frosting was runny and the cupcakes were dry and crumbly.

These cupcakes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar in the frosting next time.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but these cupcakes were surprisingly good. The frosting was light and fluffy, and the cupcakes themselves were moist and flavorful.
