Ingredients:

Serving

2/3 cup granulated sugar
3 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 large egg
1 cup finely shredded carrot
1 (8-oz) can crushed pineapple in juice, well-drained
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/8 tsp salt
1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 cup raisins
1/4 cup (2 oz) 1/3- less-fat cream cheese, chilled
1 tbsp butter or stick margarine, softened
1/8 tsp imitation coconut flavor (optional)
1 1/3 cups powdered sugar
3 tbsp flaked sweetened coconut

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°.
To prepare cupcakes, beat first 4 ingredients at medium speed of a mixer until well-blended. Add carrot and pineapple; beat well. Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine flour and next 5 ingredients (flour through nutmeg) in a bowl, stirring well with a whisk. Add flour mixture to sugar mixture; beat well. Stir in raisins.
Spoon batter into 12 muffin cups lined with paper liners. Bake at 350° for 20 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan 5 minutes on a wire rack; remove from pan. Cool completely on wire rack.
To prepare frosting, beat the cream cheese, butter, and coconut flavor at medium speed of a mixer just until blended. Gradually add powdered sugar (do not overbeat). Spread frosting over cupcakes; sprinkle with flaked coconut. Store, covered, in refrigerator.
