Carrot Cupcakes with White Chocolate Cream Cheese Icing
9
BAKERAMA
"This is a very moist and light carrot muffin. It's not too sweet and not greasy like other carrot muffins/cakes. The White Chocolate Cream Cheese Icing adds just enough sweetness to round it off."

These were very tasty but flat as pancakes! Maybe because the recipe doesn't call for baking powder?? Not sure....will try again with baking powder as well as baking soda.......
