  • I made these into cupcakes, i

    Submitted by gingerchef_jess on 8. January 2015 - 01:32.

    I made these into cupcakes, i cooked them for a bit longer than the 15min i would say 20-25 would be better. They were very tasty and i made the icing to go on top (i had chocolate philly though it was a nice touch). I've not tried purple carrots before, it still tasted like carrot cake but had something else to taste was seemed to add to the flavour tmrc_emoticons.)
