For an extra touch of flavor, add 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter. Be sure to use freshly grated carrots for the best flavor and texture. Do not overmix the batter, as this can result in tough muffins. The cream cheese frosting can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
