Ingredients

  • 2 pcs egg (at room temperature)

  • 1/2 cup sugar

  • 1/2 cup oil

Directions

  • Step 1:
    Heat the oven to 160 degrees Celsius.
  • Step 2:
    Take two room-temperature eggs in a large bowl and beat them well with a beater or hand whisk, along with sugar. Beat the eggs until the sugar is well mixed, then mix in the oil and liquid milk. Next, alternate mixing in the palm and grated coconut until well combined.

Notes

  • Beat the egg and sugar mixture well so that it becomes light and airy.
  • If the oven is too hot or too cold, the cupcakes will not rise properly, so bake at medium heat.
  • Bake until the tops of the cupcakes are lightly browned, but be careful not to bake them too long, as this may dry them out.
