The Carrot Cake Cupcakes!




So for Easter, I decided to make my coworkers some carrot cake cupcakes in honor of the Easter Bunny lol.  It's a really easy recipe but it tasted so good when put together with the cream cheese icing.


Carrot Cake Cup Cakes
2 cups of sugar
3 cups of all purpose flour
2 teaspoons of baking powder
2 teaspoons of baking soda
2 teaspoons of cinnamon
1 teaspoon of salt
1 1/2 cups of vegetable oil
4 eggs
1/2 cup of chopped nuts
3 cups of grated raw carrots


Mix all the ingredients thoroughly. Evenly divide the batter into a cupcake pan and bake for about 20 minutes at 350. 


After the cupcakes cool, mix together this easy icing and put it on top.  It just completes the flavor!


Cream Cheese Icing
        Mix together the following
8 ounces of cream cheese
3 cups of powdered sugar
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
1/2 stick of softened butter
