Carrot Cake

As the holidays draw closer together, desserts will have to be made; one common holiday favorite is Carrot Cake.  It’s actually one of the healthier cakes. J I make it for one of my friends on his birthday every year! It’s super fast and very light!

For this recipe you’ll have to make two separate mixtures and then after they are made combine them.  

Mixture 1: Mix all ingredients together in one bowl.

1 ½ c. grated carrots (nearer to 2)

1 c. chopped walnuts

1 sm. Can drained crushed pineapple

Mixture 2: Mix all ingredients in a bigger bowl.

2 c. flour                        2 tsp. baking soda

2 c. sugar                      1 c. oil

2 tsp. cinnamon            4 eggs

                   2 tsp. vanilla

Beat mixture 2 for 2 minutes.  Add mixture 1 to mixture 2.    

And then Bake. To bake:

 either put it in a 4 inch deep round pan and cook at 350 degrees for 1 hour, (then test)

 OR

 in a greased 10 inch pan at 300 º for 1 ½ hours.
