If you want coconut taste, add a little coconut milk or extract to regular vanilla frosting. Or, using regular vanilla frosting, sprinkle flake or shredded coconut into the frosting, to taste.

add coconut extract to plain vanilla or white frosting. It will taste just as good as making frosting from scratch and will be a HUGE time saver.

Hey, you're gonna love this. I have found lots and lots of recipes on the Net, even international. Just type in coconut frosting recipe. I hate coconut in any form. Just thought I'd add that for reference sake.
