AliLily | Mounds Inspired Cupcakes

I gotta tell y’all, these cupcakes are DELICIOUS! I made them for my sister’s birthday. She LOVES chocolate and coconut.

My sister Nori.

You will need this:

White cake mix

Coconut extract

Snack sized Mounds chocolate candies

Eggs and oil for cake mix

7oz bag of sweetened coconut flakes

Milk chocolate icing

Cup cake liners and pan

Prepare the cake mix according to package instructions. If you have a precious princess kitchen helper….put her to work!

After it was done, I added 4 teaspoons of the coconut extract and mixed it in well. Then I added half the bag of coconut flakes and gently folded it in to the mixture. Then I baked the cupcakes according to the package instructions.

Once they were done and cooled I cut the snack sized Mounds bars in half.

I added a half of the candy on top of a cupcake. Iced over and around it. Then sprinkled the tops with the remaining coconut flakes.

DELICIOUS!!

My sister was very happy!

I’d love to know if you try this recipe. I hope you do. It’s pretty simple, so delicious and pretty!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
