Chocolate, Coffee and Coconut Cupcake Recipe

Chocolate and coffee are complimentary flavors that bring out the best in each other. The deep, rich, and nutty notes of roasted coffee balance dark chocolate's sweet and bitter flavors for a match made in paradise. Many of our Estate Reserve coffees have naturally chocolatey characteristics, and you can't beat our 100% Kauai Coffee with a hint of Hawaiian flavors like chocolate and vanilla macadamia nut!

Pour a mug of your favorite Kauai Coffee and enjoy it with a sweet treat that celebrates the best of coffee and chocolate with our Chocolate, Coffee and Coconut Cupcake recipe!

    Baking Instructions

    1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
    2. Line a muffin tin with paper cupcake liners and set aside.
    3. Brew coffee and set it aside to cool.
    4. Sift the dry ingredients together (flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, sugar, and salt).
    5. Add the eggs, cooled coffee, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients and whisk well.
    6. Once the wet and dry ingredients are well incorporated, stir in the sweetened coconut flakes.
    7. Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners and bake for 14-20 minutes until a wooden skewer poked into the center of the cupcake comes out clean.
    8. Cool cupcakes completely before frosting.

    Coconut Buttercream Instructions

    1. Beat the butter in a stand mixer or a large bowl with a hand mixer until it is pale in color and very fluffy.
    2. Slowly add in the powdered sugar and beat until it is thoroughly combined.
    3. Add the coconut cream and a pinch of salt and beat again until the frosting is very airy.
    4. Frost the cooled mocha cupcakes with the coconut buttercream and dip the frosted side of the cupcake into a bowl filled with sweet, flaked coconut for a decorative appearance.
