Lemon Coconut Cupcakes
  1. Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in lemon zest and vanilla. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with sour cream. Beat just until combined. Fold in coconut.

  2. Fill paper-lined muffin cups three-fourths full. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 18-22 minutes. Cool 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.

  3. In a small bowl, beat cream cheese, butter, grated lemon zest, vanilla and lemon juice until fluffy. Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar until smooth; stir in ¼ cup coconut. Frost cupcakes; sprinkle with remaining coconut. If desired, garnish with lemon slices.
