Maple Carrot Cupcakes image

I come from a line of family cooks and have liked to cook and bake since I was young. Mother and Grandmom were always in the kitchen cooking up something delicious. These carrot cupcakes were Grandmom's specialty, and we always have them at family gatherings. -Lisa Ann Panzino DiNunzio, Vineland, New Jersey
