Рецепт OLD FASHIONED CARROT CAKE
Posted on October 25, 2012 by The Southern Lady
This carrot cake is one of the best cakes on my site. My family loves it. I can make this cake and it won’t last two days.
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/4 cups oil (I use Canola)
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 4 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups carrots, grated (Remove ends and scrape carrots before grating)
- 1 cup nuts or raisins, Optional
- In a large mixing bowl mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and salt together with a wire whisk. In a small bowl cream oil, sugar, eggs and vanilla with a mixer. Add creamed mixture to dry ingredients and mix well with mixer. Add carrots and keep on mixing. If using nuts or raisins fold them in with a spoon. (I don’t use nuts or raisins in my cake. We like it without them better.) Spray 2 round cakes pans or a 9 x 13 pan and add batter. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 35 to 40 minutes until toothpick comes out clean. Let cool before frosting. Frost with cream cheese frosting below.
- Cream Cheese Frosting
- 1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 stick butter or margarine or 1/2 cup or 8 tablespoons
- 1 box confectionary sugar (16 oz) or about 2 cups
- 1 tsp. vanilla
Whip all frosting ingredients together with mixer until smooth and of spreading consistency.
Enjoy!
