Passing the Torch– A Big Top Cupcake Right of Passage pt. 2

By Big Top Cupcake on Aug 3, 2009 in Cupcakes

This past wee­kend my grand­daugh­ter, Elisa, came over a baked up some DELICIOUS Big Top Cup­ca­kes. It was her first time in the kitchen, and was very memo­ra­ble to say the least!

First, we used the Big Top Cup­cake mold to create GIGANTIC cup­ca­kes.  Elisa does not like filling in her cup­ca­kes, so we deci­ded to just make something spe­cial to put on top.  Ins­tead of using my deli­cious creamy vani­lla recipe, we searched online and found this coconut-chocolate chip recipe (soooo good!):

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsal­ted but­ter, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup coco­nut milk pow­der (sif­ted, then measured)
  • 1/4 teas­poon salt
  • 1/2 teas­poon vani­lla extract
  • 3 drops coco­nut fla­vo­ring or 1/2 teas­poon coco­nut extract
  • 4 to 5 cups pow­de­red sugar (16 to 20 ounces)
  • 4 tables­poons (or more) whole milk
  • Fla­ked swee­te­ned coco­nut (optional)

The result?  A per­fect, COLOSSAL cupcake!

It was a great first expe­rience for Elisa using the Big Top Cup­cake.  Our cup­cake tur­ned out great and she was thri­lled to have baked her first with Grandma!
