coconut vanilla cupcake

These tropical mango vanilla cupcakes are moist, buttery, and have a hint of coconut. The buttercream tastes fresh, sweet, and is bursting with mango flavor.

Tropical Mango Vanilla Cupcakes

& 1/2 cups (188 grams) all-purpose flour

tsp baking powder

tsp baking soda

tsp salt

(114 grams) unsalted butter, melted and cooled

(200 grams) granulated sugar

large egg (or 1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce)

(60 milliliters) coconut flavored yogurt

(125 milliliters) milk

vanilla

(170 grams) unsalted butter, room temperature

mango

tsp vanilla extract

(500 grams) powdered sugar

Puree the diced mangoes until smooth using a blender. Measure out 1 cup and pour into a small saucepan.

Bring the puree to a simmer on the stovetop over medium-low heat. While stirring frequently, let it simmer until it reduces to half the volume (15-30 minutes). Set aside to cool while preparing cupcakes and frosting.

Mango Reduction

Preheat oven to 350°F and line a muffin pan with 12 paper liners.

In a large bowl, toss together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

In a medium bowl, whisk the melted butter with the sugar. Mix in the egg, yogurt, milk, and vanilla.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.

Divide the batter into the 12 paper liners. Bake for about 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cupcakes cool completely before frosting.

Cupcakes

Beat the butter until light and fluffy. Mix in the mango reduction, vanilla, and salt.

Add in the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, mixing in between. Blend until smooth after adding the final cup of powdered sugar. Frost as desired.

Buttercream

Delicious! If I wanted to make the mango buttercream ahead of time, can I freeze? 

Thank you!
