In bowl, cream butter and brown sugar.  Add eggs and sour cram, beat well.  Stir in the carrots, coconut and raisins.  Combine the flour, baking soda and cinnamon,; stir into creamed mixture until moistened.  Fold in nuts. 

 

Fill greased or paper lined muffin cups three fourths full.  Bake at 375 ° for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.  Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack.  Serve warm.  Yield:  1 dozen.  (Note:  I threw everything into the food processor except the nuts (including small carrots).  At the end I threw in the nuts.  They came out good!
