Carrot Cake Cheesecake Cupcakes
If the title of this post seems like it has a lot going on it’s because these cupcakes have a lot going on!
The inspiration for this creation came from my friend Jen who was in NYC a bit ago and had a slice of Junior’s Carrot Cake Cheesecake! She challenged me to make it. I thought about making a full size cake but being a huge fan of cupcakes, I challenged myself to attempt a cupcake version. The real challenge came when I decided to layer the cakes while baking instead of layering post baking like the full size version.
I thought putting the cheesecake layer on the bottom would be good but after trying to take pictures of them and when peeling the foil wrapper off the bottom, disaster… a small layer of the cheesecake came off! I am thinking the carrot cake might be better on the bottom. I used the cheesecake recipe from this post and adapted the carrot cake and cream cheese frosting from Sugar Spun Run!
