Como fazer Golden Carrot Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans or one 13x9x2-inch baking pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. In a large bowl, beat 4 large eggs until light and fluffy. Gradually add 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 cup packed golden brown sugar, beating until well combined. Let stand for 10 minutes to allow sugars to dissolve.
  4. Add 1/2 cup vegetable oil and 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce. Mix well.
  5. Stir in 2 cups grated carrots, 1 cup crushed pineapple with its juice, and 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Divide batter evenly among prepared pans.
  8. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto wire racks to cool completely.
  10. While cakes cool, prepare the frosting: In a large bowl, beat 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter with 8 ounces cream cheese and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth.
  11. Gradually add 4 cups powdered sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Add a few drops of food coloring if desired.
  12. Once cakes are completely cool, frost the layers and decorate with small, decorative carrots and green sprinkles.
