Coconut Cream Cheese Frosting

This frosting recipe goes fantastic on top of that Pina Colada Cupcake w. Coconut Rum!! This frosting is so rich and creamy, it compliments the crisp fruity flavor of the Pina Colada Cupcake so well. And of course, its easy to make!


Coconut Cream Cheese Frosting
What you will need:

  • 1/2 cup butter (1 stick), room temperature
  • 8 oz cream cheese (1 package), room temperature
  • 1/2-1 cup of powdered sugar (depending on how sweet you want it)
  • 1/4 cup of sweetened coconut
Lets get started:
Cream the butter and cream cheese together (about 3 mins). Make sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl to really make sure of mixing.
Slowly add the powdered sugar, taste as you go to attain desired sweetness. 
Fold in the coconut. Make sure to leave a handful for garnish at the end!
Spread onto cooled cupcakes and sprinkle coconut on top. 
*Optional= Toast the coconut in the oven on a baking sheet until golden brown for some nice color and professional look.


Start Summer early with these tropical cupcakes!


Serve, Eat & Enjoy! :)
