Strips of candied lime rind or desiccated coconut, for sprinkling
Method
Combine flour, baking powder, sugar, coconut and chocolate in a large bowl and stir well
Whisk together dairy soft, milk, eggs and lime rind and gently fold into the dry ingredients using a large metal spoon until only just combined. Take care not to over mix
Spoon the mixture into 12 x 1/3 cup capacity paper lined muffin pans. Bake at 190°C for 15-18 minutes or until golden and cooked. Cool
Beat extra dairy soft and lime rind with an electric beater until pale and creamy. Gradually add the icing sugar beating well between each addition, until smooth and creamy
Spread over the muffins and decorate with strips of candied lime rind or coconut
Tips & Hints
Muffins are best made and enjoyed on the same day, but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Muffins are equally delicious served without the icing, simply dust with icing sugar before serving.
