Carrot Cake Cupcakes + A Video! These carrot cake cupcakes are the BEST! My secret ingredient helps to create a very moist and flavorful carrot cake! These cupcakes are perfect for Easter or any spring event, gathering or party!
Easter is just a few days away and I couldn’t not share one of my favorite things to bake on Easter Sunday.
Carrot Cake Cupcakes!!!
Things have been insane over here these past few weeks and things are about to get even crazier. First off, I am running a half marathon on Saturday, April 2nd and I am so not ready. All of my unexpected traveling that came up kind of messed up my training so I am just going to do my best. I like to run non-stop but will definitely have to run/walk this 13.1 mile half marathon.
I also have two trips to NYC coming up very soon and will tell you guys about everything later!
And my kitchen is finished!!! Hooray!
My kitchen was completely brown, maple wood (or cherry wood?) before. You can see what my kitchen looked like before

YES! I LOVE carrot cake – it’s one of my all-time favorite desserts! And the cream cheese frosting…. I could eat that out of the bowl, by the spoonful! Your video is fantastic and your kitchen is GORGEOUS! I seriously love that giant island you have (you can never have too much counter space)!
