This is a super awesome carrot cake; the recipe is adapted from Habeus Brulee. I'm not sure I should share the recipe, as this is how I'm currently bribing people to be friends with me.

Ingredients
  • 2C all purpose flour
  • 2C sugar
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tsp cinnamon (or maybe a bit more; be generous)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1.25C vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 standard size bag of carrots (1lb?), grated
  • cream cheese frosting, to taste

Directions
  1. Preheat the over to 350 degrees.
  2. Prepare pans for baking (oil and flour, or baking cups). Personally, I usually make cupcakes -- one pan of 24 mini muffins and 6-12 full size muffins. Using three loaf pans is another good alternative; the recipe I started from recommends a bundt pan.
  3. Sift all dry ingredients together.
  4. Mix in the oil and then the eggs, one at a time. (I use my stand mixer, but this is not totally necessary.)
  5. Finally, mix in the carrots. (I shred them in the food processor.)
  6. Pour into pans and bake. My cupcakes normally take about 30 minutes. Loaf pans -- closer to 40. With a bundt pan, an hour is recommended. The toothpick test will tell you when they're done.

Sounds like my Carrot Cake recipe, you did nicely decorating it. Looks really pretty.


Thnk you sooooo much. i was desperately looking for a perfect carrot cake recipe!


Your carrot cake looks beautiful, I can't wait to make it myself.


I just came across your recepie for carrot cake. I will make it soon. Will let you know how I like it. I have never made a carrot cake so am excited about trying to bake this one.


I'm looking forward to making this one, and eating it hehehe.


Thanks for this post... simple ingredients thats what i am looking for. yummy


This seems like a lot of sugar! I used only 1 & 1/2 cups because I know the carrots are naturally sweet...and also I added 1/2 cup of applesauce to make the cake more moist. We'll see what happens! :)


Made this for my husband's birthday on May 30th. It was easy(for me) to make and my family was extremely impressed. This is going to be the "go to" recipe for all future carrot cakes.
Oh yeah, the frosting is INCREDIBLE!!!!


This was wonderful...it's a keeper!!!


My husband said this was the best carrot cake he ever had.


Pure vanilla extract, add that, you'll make friends easier;)
