Delicious carrot cupcakes with cinnamon cream cheese frosting - loved by all ages!
Ingredients:
  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1.25 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 1.5 cups white sugar
  • 0.5 cup brown sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1.5 cups vegetable oil
  • 1.5 cups shredded carrots
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 0.5 cup butter, softened
  • 3 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to a toasty 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and get your 30 muffin cups ready with paper liners.
  • In a bowl, combine flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, allspice, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together white sugar, brown sugar, and eggs until light and creamy. Add oil to the sugar mixture and mix until well combined. Gradually add the flour mixture to the sugar mixture and stir until just combined; gently fold in the carrots. Fill prepared muffin cups with the batter, filling each 3/4 full.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Allow them to cool in the pans for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • In a bowl, cream together the cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy. Gradually add the confectioners' sugar one cup at a time, beating well after each addition until you reach your preferred frosting consistency. Mix in 1 teaspoon of cinnamon until well combined. Spread the frosting over the cooled cupcakes.
