When I saw the picture of the cupcake and its icing, I said, 'That's for me!'. I do love lime and I love coconut. And they're even better together. I'll be sure to try this recipe some time.
All of these recipes look wonderful! But I am going to try a short cut. I am going to make a box yellow cake mix as cupcakes, then after they cool, I am going to make some instant vanilla pudding and flavor it with some Lime jello powder. I will then use a melon baller and scoop out some of the cupcake center and fill with the lime filling. Next, I am going to flavor some pre-made vanilla or cream cheese icing with coconut extract, ice the cupcakes, and sprinkle the tops with flaked coconut!
I have'nt tried this yet, but it sounds good in my head! I'll be making this desert along with my Pina Colada dip and Margarita shrimp cocktails for a playgroup next week! I'm hoping we'll alll feel like we're on a tropical vacation!
