Carrot cake

Carrot cake is very popular in the US, but I disliked it ever since Mick bought one ten years ago... it was Deadly sweet without any carrot taste. Anyhow, this is my first try. I modified the ingredients for the carrot cake. It turned out good and easy to make.



The dry ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt




Combine and sift the dry ingredients


add 1 & 1/2 cups vegetable oil


4 eggs


1 jar (7 ounces) carrot baby food & 1 cup shredded carrot


mix on low speed until well blended


1 can (8 ounces) crushed pineapple, drained


1 cup chopped walnuts


stir in pineapple and nuts


pour into two greased and floured 9-in. round baking pans


bake at 350F for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean


cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely


Frosting
in a mixing bowl, beat 1 package softened (8 ounces) cream cheese
1/2 cup softened butter
until smooth


beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract &
1/2 cup confectioners'sugar


until mixture reaches spreading consistency


spread between layers and over top and sides of cake


Enjoy it.

  1. 到底是秘克沒眼光還是蘇菲被騙?

    1. 是Mick和我都沒眼光
      那是Hermes某一年的獲獎作品
      那你就多看幾眼

      Delete
    2. 因得獎而貴不代表本身值那麼多錢
      譬如一個棒球才幾塊錢,有明星簽名就可能幾萬 道理一樣
      看不清楚
