How to Make Carrot Bundt Cake With Cream Cheese Glaze

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Stir in the lemon zest, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and lemon juice.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  7. Stir in the grated carrots, raisins, and nuts.
  8. Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan.
  9. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  11. While the cake is still warm, prepare the glaze: In a mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, cream of tartar, and powdered milk until smooth.
  12. Gradually add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the glaze reaches desired consistency. Stir in vanilla extract.
  13. Pour the glaze over the warm cake, allowing it to drip down the sides.
  14. Let the cake cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
