Ingredients | Emergency Tv Show Logo

2 cups cake flour

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1 ½ teaspoons baking soda

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

2 cups white sugar

1 ½ cups vegetable oil

4 eggs

2 cups grated carrots

1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained

1 tablespoon cake flour

½ cup chopped walnuts

½ cup semisweet chocolate chips

½ cup butter

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

2 cups confectioners' sugar, or more as needed

1 tablespoon lemon juice

3 drops orange food coloring

1 (1.5 ounce) tube black decorating gel

Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). (If using a countertop induction oven, preheat to 325 degrees F.) Grease 12 pumpkin-shaped cupcake molds (silicon molds work well).

Sift 2 cups cake flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Mix in sugar, oil, and eggs until combined. Stir carrots and pineapple into the batter.

Place 1 tablespoon cake flour in a bowl. Toss walnuts and chocolate chips in flour until coated; fold into batter.

Pour batter into cupcake molds to about two-thirds full; gently tap molds onto work surface to remove air bubbles.

Bake in preheated oven (or countertop induction oven) until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes (or 15 to 20 minutes in the countertop induction oven). Cool to room temperature, 15 to 20 minutes; remove from molds.

Combine butter, cream cheese, and vanilla extract in a bowl; beat with an electric mixer until well blended, 4 to 6 minutes. Mix in confectioners' sugar on low speed, 1/2 cup at a time, until frosting is smooth and spreadable. Add lemon juice and orange food coloring; stir until combined. Refrigerate until set, 15 to 20 minutes.

Frost cupcakes with the cream cheese frosting; decorate with black decorating gel.
