These cupcakes are the result of a combination of a bunch of sources. I saw a recipe for a coconut lime cake in an old cookbook that looked interesting but I wanted to make something more interesting. Immediately I decided to make cupcakes instead of a cake since these are so popular right now. I also thought to use both plain sweetened and toasted sweetened coconut. I used it plain in the cupcake itself so you get the flavor in every bite and then to get a mouthful of crunch I rolled the frosted cupcake in the toasted coconut.
The lime zest is mixed in the cupcake batter, and the juice and zest is used in the frosting. The coconut and lime work really good together and the different textures from the rich batter, creamy frosting, and crunchy topping make this a cupcake you will make again and again.
You will not believe they are made from two convenient gluten free baking mixes, a gluten free vanilla cake mix and a gluten free frosting mix!
