LIGHT & MOIST LOW-FAT CARROT CAKE

This is a moist and delicious carrot cake recipe from "Good Housekeeping". It produces a fluffy (rather than dense) cake and also makes great cupcakes (about 24). If you wanted frosted cupcakes, cut down the sugar in the cake recipe by 1/4 cup. For Cream Cheese Icing: In bowl, stir 2 oz. reduced-fat cream cheese and 1/4 c. sugar until smooth. Add 1/2 tsp milk, 1/4 tsp vanilla, and 1/2 c. more sugar; stir to a drizzling consistency.

A DIFFERENT FLUFFY, LIGHT AND MOIST CARROT CAKE (VERY LOW FAT)

I tried this recipe from a site and changed only one thing (I added 2 teaspoons cinnamon instead of the recommended 1 teaspoon orange extract) and it turned out very fluffy and moist. It also doesn't use butter or oil so its light and delicious. The frosting also doesn't use any butter so its light and delicious.
