Extra-moist carrot cupcakes, topped with Cream

Cheese Frosting, make a delicious treat.

Makes 12 cupcakes

Cake:

½ pound carrots, about 4 medium carrots

¾ cup plus 2 tablespoons unbleached,

all-purpose flour

½ tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon sea salt

½ cup granulated sugar

½ cup packed dark brown sugar

2 large eggs

½ cup plus 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

¾ cup chopped walnuts

Cream Cheese Frosting:

6 ounces cream cheese,

room temperature and cut into 6 pieces

6 tablespoons unsalted butter,

room temperature and cut into 6 pieces

½ cup confectioners’ sugar, sifted

pinch sea salt

½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 teaspoon sour cream

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter and lightly flour a

12-cup muffin pan; reserve.

2. Turn the Cuisinart

Compact Juice Extractor on

and juice the carrots. Measure out 2 tablespoons

of the carrot juice and reserve the remainder for

another use. Reserve pulp.

3. Sift the flour, cocoa, cinnamon, baking powder,

baking soda and salt together in a small bowl.

4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugars,

eggs, oil, vanilla and carrot juice until smooth. Stir

in the carrot pulp, walnuts and dry ingredients

until just combined.

5. Pour batter into the prepared muffin tin. Bake in

the preheated oven for about 20 to 25 minutes, or

until the tops of the cupcakes bounce back, and a

cake tester inserted in the center of the cupcakes

comes out clean. Cool in the pan.

6. While cupcakes are cooling, prepare the Cream

Cheese Frosting.

7. Put the cream cheese, butter and sugar into

a medium mixing bowl. Using a Cuisinart

Hand

Mixer fitted with the mixing beaters, mix on medi-

um-low until completely smooth. Add the remain-

ing ingredients and mix until just combined.

8. Once the cupcakes are completely cooled, top

with the Cream Cheese Frosting.
