Chocolate Cake
I personally like the recipe from the Hershey's Cocoa Powder box. Or check out: http://www.hersheys.com/pure-recipes/details.aspx?id=184&name=HERSHEY'S
This is a pretty dense cake. A favorite with my family, but certainly a heavy, rich cake.
Chocolate Frosting
Chocolate Butter Cream.
For this cupcake I use the recipe from the Hershey Cocoa Powder box. It's really creamy and rich, perfect for this decadent cupcake.
Coconut Topping
1/4 cup (4 tbs) of butter or margarine
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup pecans
1/2 cup flaked coconut
In a small sauce pan stir brown sugar and margarine over low heat until melted. Add coconut and pecans and stir until thoroughly mixed.
Decorating
Using a Wilton #1M decorating tip, start at the edge of the cupcakes and make a ring, leaving space for the Coconut Topping. Spoon coconut topping on cupcake
