Main Ingredients

  • 1.1 cup all-purpose flour sifted
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar plus extra for dusting
  • 0.25 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 0.5 cup mango puree fresh or canned
  • 0.25 cup key lime juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp salt

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with liners.
  • In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, incorporating well after each addition.
  • Mix in the mango puree and lime juice until blended.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
  • Scoop the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the cupcakes to cool completely on a wire rack before serving.

Notes

For added flair, frost with key lime cream cheese frosting and garnish with fresh mango slices. These cupcakes are best served chilled.
