The best carrot cake ever, and world famous in Beaumont Street.

Carrot Cake
No virtue signalling, but the taste...Wow!

Ingredients:
300gms carrots (grated)
150gms plain flour
150gms caster sugar
190mls sunflower oil
25gms baking powder
12gms ground cinnamon
4 eggs

Frosting:
300gms icing sugar
125gms cream cheese
60gms unsalted butter (softened)

Method:
Pre heat oven to 180⁰C
Line and grease a 20cm cake tin. Whisk sugar and eggs together until slightly pale. While the machine is still on slowly, gradually pour in the oil. Then add the cinnamon. Remove bowl from mixer and fold in the carrots, then the flour and lastly the baking powder. Pour mixture into the prepared tin and bake for appx 40-45mins. Once cooked, allow to cool on a wire rack.

Make the frosting by whisking all the ingredients together (don’t overbeat) then spread over the cake.

Enjoy
