Dessert Baked
Ingredients for Easy Carrot Cake:
4 Units of Eggs
1.5 Cups of Sugar (300 Grams)
1 Teaspoon of Vanilla Essence (optional)
1.5 Cups of Flour (210 Grams)
1 Cup of Vegetable Oil
1 pinch of salt
2 teaspoons of baking powder or royal yeast
2 teaspoons of cinnamon powder (optional)
2 Cups of grated carrots
½ Cup of chopped Walnuts
For the white coverage:
200 grams of cream cheese
½ Stick of Butter
1 Cup of icing sugar (140 grams)
Steps to follow to make this recipe:
1
We will start our easy-to-make carrot cake with the cake
dough . To do this, place the eggs in a container and beat
them until they acquire a foamy texture. Also, preheat the
oven to 180ºC.
2
Then, add the sugar, flour and well-sifted baking powder
alternating with the oil and continue beating. This way it will be
easier to integrate all the ingredients and obtain a
homogeneous carrot cake dough without lumps.
In this sense, it is advisable to sift the flour beforehand with
the baking powder so that the carrot and walnut cake is much
fluffier.
3
Now it's the turn of the grated carrot: add it along with the
chopped walnuts and don't stop beating. If you wish, you can
add a teaspoon of vanilla essence or cinnamon powder.
When you have the easy carrot cake dough ready, grease an
oven-safe mold with a little butter and pour the mixture. You
should bake the carrot cake for approximately half an hour ,
always keeping an eye on whether it requires a little more
time.

While the best carrot cake you've ever had is baking, you can
prepare the topping . To make it, take a container and mix
the cream cheese with the butter. When we talk about cream
cheese we are referring to soft Philadelphia-type spreadable
cheese.
Then, add the icing sugar little by little and without stopping
beating. If you wish, you can make your own powdered sugar
by following the steps in this simple recipe.
Tip: For toppings it is always better to use electric whisks
because you get a much softer and creamier result, in
addition to being more comfortable, but you can also do them
with manual ones if not possible.
5
When the carrot cake is ready, let it cool a little on a rack and
cut it in half to fill it with a thin layer of the previous mixture. If
you don't want to fill the easy and delicious carrot cake,
don't cut it and simply spread the cheese frosting on the top
and edges.
For a more elaborate decoration you can place grated carrots,
make small carrots with fondant or place chopped nuts around
the edges of the easy carrot cake .
