Eggless Carrot Cake with Cheese Cream Frosting Recipe
Christmas Holidays started! My daughter wants to bake a cake. This time, her choice is 2 layered Carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. This sounds bit higher in calories, but for kids, especially during holidays, baking and decorating the cakes are fun. This whole week, I have planned for many baking dishes like cookies, homemade chocolates etc. Carrot cake are always so yummy with a rich flavour of cinnamon and nuts. This Eggless Carrot Cake is very simple to make at home. All we need is fresh red carrots that actually adds a nice appealing color and also enrich the flavour. Freshly grated carrots added to cake batter along with cinnamon and nuts is all time favourite for many of us. We can also make plain carrot cake without frosting and that will also be very much tastier. Lets see how to make this Eggless Carrot Cake with Cheese Cream Frosting Recipe.

Method:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Take 2 9″ cake tin and grease it with butter and dust it with flour and keep it aside
- Take a sieve and add all purpose flour, wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and sieve them twice so that they are nicely aerated. Add cinnamon powder and mix well and keep this aside
- In a mixing bowl add curd, sugars, vannila essence and stir well with a whisk till the sugar dissolve completely,
- Add the dry ingredients in batches and beat them well with wet ingredients till all of them are nicely incorporated.
- Add butter to the batter and beat again so that it also gets incorporated well. Finally goes in the grated carrot. Fold the carrots well with a spatula and add the chopped peacans and fold them gently
- Pour the batter into 2 cake tins and bake them for 30-35 minutes or till the toothpick comes out clean.
- Take out the cooked cake and allow it to cool for 5 minutes in the pan. Then flip them on the cooling rack and allow them to cool completely. If you are not making the frosting, you can serve the cakes now itself
- For frosting, take a mixing bowl, add cream cheese along with butter and beat them well. Then add vannila extract and powdered sugar and beat them till you get a nice frosting with peaks.
- Once both the cakes are cooled off, take one cake and apply the frosting to its top layer. Then keep the other cake upside down and start applying the frosting all over the cake
- Once the frosting is done, its our imagination to decorate the cake, We can just sprinkle nuts or we can decorate with carrots, nuts, coconuts etc.
