Ingredients

1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2/3 cup light brown sugar (, firmly packed)
1 cup oil (,vegetable or canola oil)
1/2 cup buttermilk
4 large eggs (, room temperature)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup crushed pineapple*
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 1/2 cups carrots (, finely grated (about 1 lb.))
1 cup chopped pecans (, optional)
1 cup golden raisins (, optional)
16 ounces cream cheese (, softened)
3/4 cup butter (, softened)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4-5 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare three 8 inch cake pans* by lightly coating with cooking spray and lining with parchment paper on the bottom.
Beat the eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, oil, buttermilk, vanilla, and pineapple together in a large bowl.
In another bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, salt and nutmeg. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until incorporated.
Fold in the carrots, pecans and raisins just until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared pans. Bake on the center oven rack until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 25-30 minutes. Allow cakes to cool in the pans for 10-15 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.

DEE'S DELIGHTFUL CARROT CAKE

Dee's Delightful Carrot Cake image

This is a wonderfully moist and flavorful recipe for carrot cake. The first carrot cake wedding cake I made it wore my arms out grating carrots by hand. The next week I invested in a food processor. It made easy work of the carrots but I went thru 3 shreading blades and 2 food processors from making so many carrot cakes. I...

Number Of Ingredients 22

Ingredients

2 c granulated sugar
1 c canola oil
1/2 c sour cream or yogurt
4 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 c unbleached white flour
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp baking powder
3 tsp cinnamon, ground
2 c grated carrots
1 small can crushed pineapple or 1/2 of a large can with juice
1 c flaked sweetened or unsweetened coconut
1 1/2 c toasted pecans, chopped
1 Tbsp flour
CREAMED CHEESE FROSTING
2 lb c & h powdered sugar
1 - 8 oz pkg creamed cheese (philadelphia brand preferred)
1/2 c butter, softened
1/2 c butter flavored crisco (makes frosting fluffier)
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

1. Preheat over to 350 degrees. Prepare a 9"x13" or 2 - 9" round pans buy greasing and flouring them or spraying with "Pam".
2. In mixing bowl, cream oil and sugar together for 2 minutes. Beat in eggs and vanilla and beat for another 2 minutes. Sift dry ingredients and spices together and blend slowly into oil/egg mixture. Beat for 2 minutes on medium speed. Remove bowl from mixer. Fold in carrots, pineapple, and coconut. Dust pecans with 1 Tbl. flour and fold into batter. Pour into prepared pan/s. Bake for 45-50 minutes or till medium brown and it tests done. A little overbaked is ok, better than a soggy cake. It's very moist so it shouldn't dry out. Cool in pans for 20 minutes and then remove from pan/s and finish cooling. Make frosting while cake is cooling. For best results when frosting any cake is to thoroughly chill in fridge before frosting it. This will make cake more managable and keep the crumbs at bay. Frost cake and decorate as desired, or leave plain. It tastes awesome either way... delightfully delicious!
3. Frosting Directions: In mixer bowl with wire whip attached, cream butter, creamed dheese, and Crisco together for 2 minutes. slowly add powdered sugar, salt & vanilla. Whip until fluffy and spreadable.
4. This frosting is great for decorating and piping borders etc. If u are not decorating, u can eliminate the shortening and double the butter. I'm not a fan of shortening but it makes the frosting fluffier to decorate with.
