Brrrr, the weather is cold, with temperatures dropping below -1. And the only way to keep warm is a nice, hot cup of chocolate and some carrot cake, my favorite!!!
So, I wanted to share with you my special recipe, of Cocoa Carrot Cake. Hope you all find it delicious. So here goes and have fun making it.
Ingredients:
- 1/3cup of cooking oil
- 1 cup of granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 cup of carrots (grated)
- 1 cup of boiling water
- 1 tsp of salt
- 1 1/2 tsp of baking soda
- 1 1/2 of white wheat flour
- 1 tsp of ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup of cocoa
Instructions:
1. Prepare a mixing bowl. Put the sugar, oil, and carrots in it. Put some water into the mix. Set it aside for now. Get another bowl and toss in the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and cocoa. Add some salt too. Add this to the mixture in the other bowl. Mix this and pour into a pan. An 8'' inch pan is recommended.
2. Bake the cake at a temperature of 350 degrees for 35 minutes. When it's cooked, add some cream cheese as icing. You can also use ice-cream as frosting.
Hope you enjoy my home made carrot cake recipe. The fun part of baking cakes and making desserts is experimenting with other flavorings in the process. You could always swap the cocoa in the recipe and use raisins or some nuts like walnuts or cashews. Have fun and enjoy your cake!
Keep Smiling! Love & Peace x x
