Notes
Helpful recipe tips:
- Coconut butter must be warm and smooth. Simply adding jar to hot water will make coconut butter smooth.
- All room temperature ingredients, if eggs are cold this will cause the coconut butter to seize and this will make the batter super stiff. This will make it hard to spoon into muffin liners. If you make this mistake a quick addition of 3TB of melted butter or heavy cream will allow you to spoon the batter. Higher calories will be a result of this.
- Store frosting in the refrigerator if some is left over. For the first day, it is fine to leave it on the counter. Note, when remove from refrigerator you'll have to leave it out and mix it to make it smooth again.
