Zubereitung von Chocolate Carrot Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan, line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners, or prepare two 9-inch round cake pans (greased and lined with parchment paper at the bottom).
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add eggs and oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Stir in the grated carrots.
- Pour batter evenly into the prepared pan(s).
- Bake for 25-30 minutes for a 9x13 inch pan, 18-22 minutes for cupcakes, or 30-35 minutes for two 9-inch round layers. Insert a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, it's done.
- Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake cools, prepare the frosting: In a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually beat in the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
- Once the cake is completely cool, frost as desired. For layer cakes, frost between layers and on top. Sprinkle with nuts and chocolate chips (optional).
- Serve and enjoy!
