American coconut cupcake recipe- can anyone convert the baffling quantities? Or any other good recipes?

[tethersend]

I want to make these, but not sure about the flour... US flour is different, no? Should I use SR and omit the baking powder?

And how the fuck do you measure butter by the cup?

Any help?

Or other recipes? I like this one because it uses coconut milk and seems like they'd be quite moist...

Thanks in advance.

Might be better if I CnP the ingredients:

Cupcake Ingredients

3/4 cup of unsalted butter, room temperature
1 1/4 cup of sugar
3 eggs, room temperature
1 cup of canned coconut milk
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups of flour
1 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1/2 cup of sweetened desiccated coconut

Coconut Cream Cheese Frosting Ingredients

1/2 cup of butter (1 stick), room temperature
8 oz of Philly cream cheese (1 package), room temperature
1/2-1 cup of powdered sugar
1/4 cup of sweetened desiccated coconut

Anyone?

here you go conversions

Thanks free- it's the flour that's really confusing me. Can I do a straight conversion and which flour do I need to use?

I think standard american flour is normally called 'all purpose' and is equivalent to plain flour. Given that there is baking powder in the recipe, that should be fine. American cups are loosely packed so err on the side of adding too little flour; you can always add some more if it seems too runny.
