Begin by making the frosting ahead of time and allowing to sit in the fridge. With an electric mixer, mix the coconut cream until smooth. Add remaining ingredients and mix until smooth. Set in the fridge for at least an hour.
Preheat the oven to 350.
Sift together dry ingredients. Add remaining ingredients and mix until smooth. Pour into a standard size lined cupcake pan and bake for 25 minutes, or until you can poke with a knife and it comes out clean.
Once removed from heat, cover tightly and place in the freezer to cool for about an hour (by covering tightly you’re trapping the moisture and helping moisten the cupcakes).
Once cooled frost and top with toasted coconut. Serve and enjoy!
