Chef 101 Eve Morphs Two Recipes Into One Decadent Carrot Cake

I was a wee bit lost, one recipe told me to use a can of crushed pineapple, but didn’t give the size of said can.  One recipe called for 2 teaspoons nutmeg while the other called for one, 4 eggs or 3 came next and raisins…well we just left that out.  This is the recipe I ended up with for my husband Eddie’s birthday cake.  And, even though Eddie wouldn’t let me leave off the 8 ounce cream cheese/cube of butter/box of powdered sugar frosting from one side of the cake (must have been for looks alone) for my dairy-free diet, scraping worked, as did this “morphed recipe”:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 2 teaspoons baking soda

  1. The Carrot cake sounds delish. Did everyone love it? Would you do anything different if you made it again? Thanks for sharing. I’ve never made a Carrot cake but you’ve inspired me to try it…now to decide which wine to pair it with 😉

    1. Hi Brian, it was decadently good. I liked the recipe as it appeared, morphed from two. For pairing you could go for a sparkling wine, dessert wine, late harvest wine…let me know what you do!
