NOT-JUST-FOR EASTER CARROT CAKE



Not-Just-For Easter Carrot Cake image

I traditionally used to make this for dessert on Easter Sunday, but I have had so many requests for it at all times during the year. It is a guaranteed hit no matter when it is served. Just be prepared for a bit of work. You don't get a cake this wonderful by taking shortcuts! (While this looks similar to another recipe posted here, it diverges in many aspects.) Also, this cake needs to be made a day ahead of time and refrigerated overnight, which is not reflected in the prep time.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 1 3-layer cake

Number Of Ingredients 24

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 cup sugar
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 cup buttermilk
3/4 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 lb carrot, peeled and grated
1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, softened
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 (16 ounce) package confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons grated orange rind
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
marzipan carrots (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease three 8" round layer cake pans, line with waxed paper, then grease and flour waxed paper.
  • Combine first 7 ingredients in a medium bowl, then set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine both sugars, buttermilk, oil, eggs, and vanilla until blended.
  • Add flour mixture, then carrots, pineapple, walnuts, coconut, and raisins, stirring just until incorporated.
  • Pour batter into prepared cake pans. Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 30 minute, or until a cake tester comes out clean. Cool in pans for 10 minutes, then loosen cake from edges of pan with a sharp knife and invert onto wire racks. Peel off waxed paper and let cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, make Cream Cheese Frosting: combine butter and cream cheese in a large mixing bowl, beating until light and fluffy. Add sugar, orange rind, and vanilla, mixing well.
  • When cakes are cool, spread frosting between layers and on top and sides of cake. Garnish with marzipan carrots, if desired. Cover and refrigerate overnight before cutting.
