Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350º.

Place 12 paper muffin cup liners in muffin cups. Set aside.

Combine cocoa and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl. Add boiling water, stirring until cocoa dissolves. Set aside.

Combine yogurt and baking soda; stir.

Combine 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons margarine, and yolk. Beat at high speed of a mixer 1 minute. Add cocoa mixture, yogurt mixture, flour, coconut, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and almond extract; mix well.

Beat salt and egg white at high speed of a mixer until stiff peaks form. Fold into batter; divide batter evenly among prepared muffin cups. Bake at 350º for 20 minutes or until cupcakes spring back when touched lightly in center.
