2 cups shredded baby carrots
1 cup oil
1 cup oil
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour
2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
8 oz. (250gms) crushed (canned) pineapple, drained
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (& pecans optional)
Method:
Preheat oven to 350 Deg. F. Shred baby carrots and keep aside
In a blending bowl combine oil, sugar, vanilla & eggs and beat well
Stir in flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt through a seave & then add to the beater to mix well. The batter will be very stiff.
Now add in the carrots, drained pineapple and 1/2 cup nuts & mix well. The batter will now slowly start to soften.
Pour into two 8x2 inch round cake pans (or into one 13x9 inch pan) and spread the batter evenly
Bake at 350 Deg F for about 45-55 minutes until dark golden brown and cake springs back when lightly touched in the center.
Cool on wire rack
Cream Cheese frosting
1tbsp butter, softened
1 cup melted marshmallows
1 cup melted marshmallows
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 cup shredded coconut
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Mix all ingredients together. You are now ready to frost your delicious cake. One tip on the melted marshmallows. You could substitute this to a bottle of "Jet-Puffed" melted confectioner's marshmallow you could pick up at villa on soi 39. You could use about 4 tablespoons to the cream cheese mixture however skip using the sugar in this case as it is already included in the bottle. I prefer this to melting marshmallows... saves more time & tastes absolutely amazing!
