Incredibly Easy and DELICIOUS Carrot Cake Recipe

This is an incredibly easy carrot cake recipe, and it's SO yummy!!! I never used to like carrot cake all too much,  but after tasting this one... No words, no words... Maybe I'm just biased, because it's my Mum's recipe, but I think it's amazing.

So for this recipe, there are two parts, the actual cake, and the cream cheese frosting, and I've included instructions for both.

Ingredients: 

For the Cake:

1 cup sugar                         

1 cup oil

2 cups grated carrot

3 eggs

1/2 cup chopped walnuts

1 & 1/3 cups plain flour

1 & 1/3 teaspoons bicarbonate of soda

1 & 1/3 teaspoons baking powder

1 & 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon

For the cream cheese frosting:

4 oz Philadelphia Cream Cheese

6 oz icing sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 oz butter

Instructions:

Cake:

Cream sugar and oil, add eggs one at a time and stir in.  Add sifted dry ingredients, then stir in carrots and walnuts.  Bake for 1 hour at 300F. (160C)

Frosting:

Cream all together until light.  Spread over cake, sprinkle with chopped walnuts.

TIP: You don't have to be absolutely perfectionist with this recipe. It's always better if you go a bit heavy on the ingredients :)

TIP 2: The frosting is so good I would just eat it by itself, so if you're anything like me, put it out of reach once you finish making it and are just waiting for the cake to finish baking <3

Let us know how you go!!

Stay foxie,
