Coconut Pandan Cupcake 

Hi guys today I will be sharing my recipe for Coconut Pandan Cupcake its really good and will be good for a party. 

Ingridients

1 cup coconut cream or coconut milk

2 cups  flour

2 1/2 tsp of pandan extract ( I use buko pandan)

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1 cup butter

1 cup sugar

3 large egg

1/2 cup dessicated coconut

For the Swiss Meringue Butter Cream this is optional you can use your own recipe for buttercream or whipping cream 

109 g egg whites

218 g sugar

327 g

2 tsp of buko pandan extract

Dy Ingredients 

Combine the dry ingredients cake flour, salt, baking powder whisk or you can sift then add the desiccated coconut set aside.

Wet Ingredients 

Combine the Coconut cream or coconut milk with the buko pandan flavouring.

Beat the butter (make sure at room temperature) add the sugar , beat until light and fluffy about 3-5 minutes. Occasionally scrape the side of the bowl. 

Add eggs one at a time beating in each addition. 

With your hand mixer on a low speed add the dry ingredients in three additions alternating with the wet ingredients beginning and ending with the dry ingredients , and mixing each additions just until incorporated. Do not over mix

Line cupcake pan with cupcake liner. Pour batter into the cupcake pan filling about 3/4 of the way full. Bake in a pre heated oven at 170-175 deg C or until when you insert toothpick in the middle and the toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool in a wire rack. 

For the Swiss meringue buttercream 

Whisk sugar and egg whites together in a bowl over simmering water, whisking constantly until temperature reaches 140 deg F or 60 Deg C or until you can no longer feel any granules of sugar thats a good indication that the mixture is ready. 

Whisk or beat the sugar-egg white mixture on a high speed until it come to room temperature, Add butter 1 cube at a time; mix until silky- smooth , it will first look weird but continue mixing until that silky stage.

 Finally add the buko pandan flavouring. 

I used 1M piping tip to pipe the buttercream into the cupcakes :D 

Enjoy
