Carrot Cheese Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting

I must say these carrot cheese cupcakes are really delicious. It has a very smooth texture and the taste was just simply fantastic and refreshing!!! Unlike the usual carrot cupcakes with cinnamon powder, these cupcakes are purely just cheese & carrots... :-p

Try them!!!

As usual, I was rather curious about the taste of these carrot cupcakes, so I had to try them once they were out of the oven.... Thumbs up!!!! I really like it;))


Ingredients:


100g butter


125g cream cheese ( I use Philidelphia Cream Cheese)


100g icing sugar


2 eggs, beaten

100g self raising flour


1 tsp baking powder


100g shredded carrots, grated & squeezed off the excess water


Method:


Cream the butter, cheese and sugar until smooth & creamy. Gradually add in the eggs, bit by bit, followed by the lemon essence, and mix well. Add in the flour by batches, mix well until well combined. Add in the carrots and mix well. Fill the cups about 2/3 full. bake in a preheated oven of abt 180 DegC for about 20-25mins.
