Amazing Carrot Cupcakes with Sweet Orange Frosting

Okay you guys seriously, do you remember being a little kid and thinking how gross carrot cake was? I’m pretty sure grandmas only ate it, until now. My little kids actually like this recipe, I am not sure maybe it’s the frosting? I will admit I’m a sugar addict. So guaranteed I will be eating these even when I am a grandma and I’m going to convince my grand-kids, that these are the most Amazing Carrot Cupcakes with Sweet Orange Frosting ever!

I’m happy to report that Daisy did not get my cupcakes this time. Many of you probably remember that she ate my cupcakes from my last post, read it here.

    I’m soooo making those cupcakes! But I always substitute apple butter or cinnamon applesauce for the oil just so I don’t feel as guilty ????
