Coconut Raspberry Ice Cream Cupcakes
While I was at JP Licks the other day, I grabbed margarita sorbet for the coconut margarita ice cream cupcakes, but the red raspberry fat free frozen yogurt also caught my eye. Boy do I miss ice cream and frozen yogurt. I had a little taste and this stuff is amazing. I decided raspberry would also go well with coconut, so I took a pint of that home as well.
Again, I made the two varieties of cupcake/ice cream configurations. And again both were great. The frozen yogurt is soft, so it does drip down the cupcake. This is definitely one you want to eat with a spoon.
This is my last ice cream cupcake for now. I hope to make some more dairy free ones once the kitchen is back in working order. The one thing I’ve learned is that a stiff frosting works best. I’d say cream cheese frosting is best for ice cream cupcakes.
I am submitting these cupcakes into the blogging event hosted by Cupcake Project and Scoopalicious. Be sure to check back to vote for their reader’s choice cupcakes. Voting will be the first week in June.

Love any type of mousse- esp if it’s pink!
Love the pink! So cute and it looks and sounds delicous! Thanks!
This looks so wonderful! I never would have thought of cranberries and white chocolate together- you are so right-what a great option for Thanksgiving!
Great idea! I am always in charge of dessert for Thanksgiving and this would be perfect to add to the line-up.
I know you said lighter dessert idea, but I’m picturing a cranberry mousse tart with dark chocolate drizzled on top!
This looks delicious! Also, can I ask…what kind of backdrop do you shoot your photos on? It is so clean and really highlights the food at hand!
Rachel – For the majority of my photographs, I use 12″x12″ scrapbooking pages. I have a bg folder with all my pages in them. I have been using a lot of solid colors recently. I have to admit I love how the blue background really makes the pink mousse pop in these pics!
Lovin’ the cranberryness here!
Love the pinkness and love the recipe!
This sounds delicious, and I love how that beautiful pink color just pops. Definitely going on my menu!!
This mousse looks divine! I could not be trusted around it.
