There is nothing like carrot cake made from scratch.
I made a delicious carrot cake for my husbands birthday.
If you want to layer the cake like I did I would suggest freezing the layers
before
stacking to frost. It is a very soft moist cake and just about fell
apart when we stacked it up to frost it. The frosting recipe did not make
as much as I was wanting it to so I added some powdered sugar
and milk to make it go farther.
RECIPE:
Cream together:
1 1/2 cup cooking oil
2 cups sugar
3 whole eggs
Add:
2 cups grated carrots
1 cup crushed drained pineapple
Mix well:
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon
Pour into greased and floured 9x13" baking dish or two cake rounds.
Bake at 350 degrees for 45-60 min
CREAM CHEESE FROSTING:
1/2 cup butter softened
8 oz cream cheese softened
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla
Mix together until smooth
