- Berry Decadent Carrot Cake
Ingredients
- 150g BerryWorld Berries
- 3 Large Eggs
- 175ml Sunflower Oil
- 230g Self Raising Flour
- 200g Light Muscovado Sugar
- ½ teaspoon Baking Powder
- 50g Desiccated Coconut
- 60g Flaked Almonds
- 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 200g Carrots, roughly grated
- 300g Cream Cheese
- 50g Icing Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Paste
Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Line 2 x 20cm loose bottomed cake tins.
Step 2
Mix together the eggs and oil in a jug.
Step 3
Place the flour, sugar, baking powder, coconut, flaked almonds and cinnamon in a large bowl and mix really well.
Step 4
Pour the egg and oil mixture into the flour mixture and using a spatula or wooden spoon mix everything together well. Fold in the carrots and berries - you should now have a think batter which drops easily from a spoon.
Step 5
Divide the mixture between the two cake tins and place in the middle of the oven and bake for 25 – 30 minutes.
Step 6
Whilst the cake is cooking make the frosting. Whisk the cream cheese, icing sugar and vanilla paste until fully mixed and is light and fluffy , you may find it easier to use a stand mixer of hand held electric whisk. Transfer to a bowl and place in the fridge to cool.
Step 7
Once the cakes are cooked remove from the oven and leave to cool in the tins for 5 minutes before removing from the tins and transferring to a wire cooling rack. Leave to cool completely.
Step 8
When cool sandwich the two cakes together with a little of the frosting then spread the rest of the frosting it all over the top and sides of the cake.
Step 9
Decorate with the remaining berries and serve.
