Steps
- 1
Preheat oven to 350°F and grease and line muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- 2
Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt and set aside.
- 3
Beat the butter, sugar, and tangerine zest until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating until well combined.
- 4
Add about 1/3 of the flour mixture to the egg/sugar mixture and beat until combined. Add about 1/3 of the tangerine juice and beat until combined. Repeat until all of the flour and juice has been adding in.
- 5
Pour batter into cupcake liners and bake 25-30 minutes. A toothpick should come out clean. Let muffins cool.

Ok honestly, I really struggled with the frosting. I envisioned a marshmallow flavored frosting that would be stiff enough to pipe out of an icing bag and then I planned on making a little icing tower and dipping it in coconut flakes. But I failed haha. Mine was a thick but liquid frosting and I messed with it for a long time and eventually gave up so I think this is what I did after all the experimenting. If I were to try again though, I would probably try beating whipping cream and sugar and adding in marshmallow fluff.

Melt marshmallows and a little whipping cream in a saucepan. Remove from heat once it's liquid and beat with another cup or so of whipping cream and additional sugar. I beat it for like 20 minutes and then left it in my fridge covered over night.

The next day, I stirred the frosting and put it on the cupcakes. Wait about 30 seconds until frosting stops dripping and then dunk frosting side down into a plate of coconut flakes.

Let them sit for a few minutes. Add a sprinkle more of coconut flakes to each one. Decorate with tangerine slices and rind spirals.
