Comment préparer Chocolate Coconut Cupcakes Light

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  3. Add 1/2 cup boiling water to the cocoa mixture, stirring until smooth and cocoa is completely dissolved. Set aside.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt and 1 teaspoon baking soda. Stir gently until combined.
  5. In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons unsalted margarine, and 1 large egg yolk using an electric mixer on high speed for 1 minute.
  6. Add the cocoa mixture and yogurt mixture to the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  7. Add 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 teaspoon almond extract. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  8. In a clean bowl, beat 1 large egg white with a pinch of salt using an electric mixer on high speed until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  9. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter until just combined.
  10. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  11. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  12. Let the cupcakes cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  13. While cupcakes are cooling, prepare the frosting: In a small saucepan, combine 1 1/2 tablespoons water, 1 teaspoon margarine, and 2 ounces of semisweet chocolate chips.
  14. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
  15. Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup powdered sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth.
  16. Once cupcakes are completely cool, frost with the chocolate frosting.
