In a bowl combine 1 1/2 cups shredded carrots (about 3 carrots), 1/2 cup canola oil, and 3/4 cup granulated sugar. Pour 1 cup of boiling water on top. In a separate bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour, 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa, 1/2 t salt, 1 1/2 t baking soda, and 1 t cinnamon. Add dry ingredients to wet. I also like to add a big handful of chocolate chips. Put in a greased 8x8 inch baking pan and bake at 350 for 35 minutes. These make great cupcakes or mini cupcakes for school(makes 24+ minis). For cupcakes and mini cupcakes, they will need much less cooking time so check often. For minis check after 8 minutes. Prob won't be done yet but they might be!
Let it cool, then:
Top with cream cheese frosting. If doing cupcakes put a chocolate chip on the top of each one.
