Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a muffin tin with nonstick spray.
  2. Grate the carrots, then roughly chop them into small bits.
  3. Whisk the oil, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla until combined. Fold in the carrots. Mix in the dry ingredients until just combined.
  4. Fill each muffin cup about two-thirds full. Bake for 16 to 17 minutes. Press the centers gently; if they spring back, they're done. If not, bake 2 to 3 more minutes. (With paper liners, bake closer to 19 minutes.)
  5. Beat the softened butter and cream cheese until smooth. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla and mix until smooth. If too soft to pipe, chill briefly to firm up.
  6. Pipe the frosting onto the cooled cupcakes.
