Ingredients
- Cupcake Ingredients:
- ½ cup Blue Curacao Liqueur
- ½ cup Cream Of Coconut
- 3 Egg Whites
- 1/3 cups Vegetable Oil
- 1/4 C pineapple juice
- 2 C flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 baking soda
- 1 1/2 C sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
- blue gel food coloring
- Frosting Ingredients:
- 1 C soft unsalted butter
- 4 + C powder sugar
- 4 TBSP heavy whipping cream
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Line a cupcake pan with paper liners.
Add flour, baking powder, and salt to a bowl.
Whisk together the blue curacao liqueur, cream of coconut, egg whites, vegetable oil, pineapple, sugar, vanilla, and blue gel food coloring.
Slowly add 1/3 of the dry mixture at a time to the wet mixture, stirring directly after each addition, until all of the dry mixture has been added and incorporated.
The batter may be a little lumpy.
Fill each lined cupcake tin 2/3 of the way.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20–25 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
Allow to cool in the cupcake pan for 10 minutes.
Remove the cupcakes from the cupcake pan, placing each one on a wire rack to cool completely.
Cream the butter and powder sugar until it looks light and creamy.
If it doesn't cream, add several drops of the heavy whipping cream until it creams.
Test to see if the frosting can form and hold a stiff peak by taking a spoonful of frosting and turning the spoon upside down
If the frosting stays on the spoon, it is ready; if not, then...
Add more powder sugar, 1/2 cup at a time. Mix well.
Test to make sure that the frosting can make and hold a stiff peak.
If ready, scoop the frosting into a pastry bag with a star tip.
Twist the open end of the pastry bag to push the frosting to the tip.
Start by frosting the outside edge of the cupcake, working to the center of the cupcake.
