Some grocery stores sell bags of grated carrots, as well. Every bite is filled with warm spice and sweet carrots and topped with the most delicious cinnamon cream cheese frosting. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together oil, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until combined and smooth. These carrot cake cupcakes are a modified version of my favorite carrot cake.
