I would probably bake them at the same temperature, but reduce the baking time to between 18 and 22 minutes! And let me know how they turn out - I'm thinking that "Halloween carrot cake cupcakes" would be an excellent idea! -Shannon P.S. If you make cupcakes from this recipe, you may be left with a lot of extra frosting. The frosting will keep in the freezer for up to 6 months in a tightly sealed container. Let it thaw to room temperature, give it a quick beating with a hand-held mixer, and voila! No one will ever know!! Patty,

(Can you tell I'm obsessed about this carrot cake?! This is my second post!) I'm thinking that an already portioned out version might help me control how much of this I eat. Maybe!

I am mad at my husband for eating the last piece that I had been saving for myself as a treat after dinner! Oh well- I guess I'll have to make more! Your recipes are excellent. I'm so glad I found your site. One thing: this recipe calls for canola oil but doesn't say when to add it. I left it out completely and the cake came out just fine. Is it written by mistake?
