Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting for Holiday Dessert

Nov 26, 2018

Carrot Cake – Thanksgiving Dessert

Carrot Cake

For this carrot cake recipe, it was a real winner for Thanksgiving.  I found this recipe at AllRecipes.com.   This is one of my go-to sites for recipes.   A few tweaks to the recipes I omitted the coconut.  I love carrot cake however I am not a fan of extra ingredients like coconut and raisins.    The finale  of  the cream cheese frosting  which is absolutely delicious.

The recipe is as follows:

Ingredients

  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 2 cups grated carrots
  • 1 cup flaked coconut
  • 1 (15 ounces) can crushed pineapple, drained
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 (8 ounces) package cream cheese
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 cups confectioners’ sugar

Click the link above for the rest of the recipe.   As you can see  I covered the remainder of my walnuts around the cake.   A baking confession:  After I poured the cake batter in my three cake pans I forgot to shake the pans to evenly spread the cake batter.  Once the baking time was over I realized that two of my three cake pans were uneven.   Frosting hides blunders and the walnuts was a nice added touch.     I hope you enjoy as much my family!!! This is now my go-to recipe for CARROT CAKE!
