CARROT CAKE



Carrot Cake image

Carrot Cake is one of those classic recipes that works so well for any celebration. The bright orange color offset by creamy white frosting makes Carrot Cake the star of any dessert tray. As the name implies, the shredded carrots give this easy Carrot Cake recipe its bright color, but the taste is subtle. Warm cinnamon and vanilla help create a swoon-worthy flavor as you bite into the moist, dense cake. One of the best parts of Carrot Cake is the famous sweet-and-tangy cream cheese frosting. Follow our homemade recipe, or save time, and substitute Betty Crocker™ Rich & Creamy Cream Cheese Frosting instead.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Ensure all ingredients are measured and ready before beginning the recipe.
  • Room temperature ingredients: For optimal results, bring ingredients like eggs, butter, and cream cheese to room temperature before using.
  • Properly measure flour: To accurately measure flour, use a kitchen scale or spoon the flour into a measuring cup and level it off with a knife.
  • Creaming butter and sugar: Creaming butter and sugar until light and fluffy helps incorporate air into the mixture, resulting in a lighter and airier cake.
  • Do not overmix: Overmixing the batter can develop the gluten in the flour, leading to a tough and dense cake.
  • Proper baking temperature: Preheat the oven to the specified temperature before baking and avoid opening the oven door during baking to prevent the cake from falling.
  • Cool the cake completely: Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting or decorating to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • Leveling the cake layers: For a smooth and even cake, use a serrated knife to level the cake layers before assembling.
  • Chilling the cake: Chilling the cake before frosting helps stabilize it and makes it easier to handle.
  • Decorate as desired: Once the cake is frosted, decorate it with your favorite toppings such as sprinkles, chopped nuts, or fresh fruit.
