Ingredients
· 1 package (18-1/4 ounces) spice cake mix
· 1-1/3 cups water
· 1/4 cup canola oil
· 3 eggs

CINNAMON FROSTING:

· 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
· 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
· 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
· 1 to 2 tablespoons 2% milk
Directions
· In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, water, oil and eggs; beat on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on medium for 2 minutes. Stir in zucchini and raisins. Fill paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full.
