Thread: Carrot Cake Cupcakes

This morning for Mother's Day I baked up some cupcakes using the carrot cake recipe from @JeannieCO



I sub'd pecans for the walnuts and topped them off w/some Heath Bar bits and pecans. I had batter left over so I also made two mini loaves to give to my friend and a neighbor for this special day.

Hope all you mom's have a very wonderful day!


Here's the recipe for the winning carrot cake:

I had a lot of fun baking these and used 5 carrots like you did (vs.3), which i think contributed to the moistness of the cake. It was a HIT!

Yes the cake really needs 5 carrots of regular size. When I made it at last, I made of with nuts and half without nuts. I'm going to make the cupcakes, not now but this fall probably.
