Carrot Cake: Moist and Easy - You Suck at Cooking (episode 139)

If you're looking for a great recipe to make carrot cake, and you have the confidence to put the ingredients together and then do the rest of the steps until that carrot cake is ready, then you just might end up making a carrot cake.

Recipe
Put the things in the bowl and then the pan and then the oven and then bake them or remind me to write this out and I'll write it out okay thanks

Actual Recipe

Dry Ingredients
1 3/4 cups flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cinnamon
Put them all in a bowl and wangjangle

Wet Ingredients in another bowl
Scramble 4 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil (add to the eggs next)
1 cup sugar (add to the oily eggs next)
1 tsp vanilla extract (add whenever tf you want)
2 cups finely shredded carrots (add to the wet stuff once it's all combined

Get your pan ready
Cut a parchment paper circle to put in the bottom of your pan. If you don't have a circular pan you can use whatever pan you have. Spray pesticide on the edges to prevent a bug infestation or you can use some form of grease, like butter

Combine wet and dry ingredients but don't over wangjangle, once it just comes together you're good.

Pour that gloop into your pan

Oh go back in time and preheat your undoh to 350

Bake the cake for 45 minutes and check it. Some recipes call for up to 90 minutes which just sounds crazy to me. But just cook it until a toothpick comes out without any cake guts sticking to it

Let it cool for ten to fifteen minutes before removing from the pan to cool completely

Frosting
½ brick 4oz 125ml softened cream cheese
1 cup icing sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
pinch salt

Electric wangjangle the cream cheese and slowly add the ice sugar, vanilla and salt until it's frosting.

Once the cake is cool you can put it on your record player and then spiralize outward until it looks professional and cool. If you're not committed to professionalism you can just do it right on your counter top.

Definitely going to answer questions with only "I'm glad you asked" from now on.

Vanilla is NOT the Ketchup of baking. Its the garlic of baking. You know you wanna put more then the recipe says to and it will taste good no matter what

[singerofsongss]

“It has eggs so it’s legally breakfast” bro it has eggs and veggies this cake is a whole ass omelette

For the keto version just leave away the carrots, the flour, the baking soda/powder, the cinnamon, the sugar, the vanilla extract and the vinyl.

"That's a great question, I'm glad you asked!"
*Carries on without elaborating*

Amazing

I was 19 years old when I found out Carrot Cake actually had carrots in, I thought they were joking

"Sugar is ice that becomes liquid when in contact with another liquid"
I’ve never heard something that sounds so wrong but is so true

[heathertalbot]

The tiny grater and tiny cutting board are delightful!

[Tyranzor]

Baking powder and soda are both used to give the cake an initial rise, then a slightly smaller one in the oven as the bake finishes.
Essentially it makes for the best crumb structure

I love not adding raisins to cakes, I think it adds a nice touch of being delicious and without raisins!

“Carrot with a bottom handle”

Oh yeah, a bottom will know how to handle that carrot, that’s for sure.

[Slightly_Classy]

This is unironically my favorite carrot cake recipe. I reference it all the time, so thank you!

[badseed]

Technically it would be ok to put some raisins in it but you would spend a lot of time afterwards spitting them out, which could also be considered as socially awkward in some western cultures.

Did anyone else notice him stir "fuck" into the batter at 2:23?

[balamx]

I followed the instructions, but found that the pesticide that I sprayed the pan with made the cake taste funny. Plus, I'm not feeling well.

actually i want to make this like tomorrow so i wrote it out myself

ingredients:
2 cups of grated carrots (looks like he used 4 normal sized ones?)
1 3/4 cups of all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cinnamon
4 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract

instructions:
- preheat oven to 350°F
- grate carrots
- in a large bowl add dry stuff together and mix
- in a different bowl mix the eggs, oil, sugar, vanilla extract, and grated carrot
- dump the wet stuff into the dry stuff and fold together, don’t over-mix
- trace the bottom of your cake pan to cut parchment paper into circle slightly smaller than it
- put the parchment paper in your pan and spray with nonstick cooking spray
- pour the batter into the pan and bake in oven for 45 mins or until a toothpick comes out clean when you poke it in
- let rest for 10-15 mins then get it out of the pan onto a wire rack (the editing is confusing there but i’ll just trust his words i guess)

for the frosting:
1/2 brick (4oz/125g) of room temp cream cheese
1 cup icing sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
pinch of salt

- in yet another bowl, beat the cream cheese with electric mixer until fluffy (or a spatula and your arms if you really want to)
- add the icing sugar a little at a time while mixing
- add vanilla

apply the frosting however you desire (after cake is completely cooled) and enjoy :)

As someone who currently has a broken arm, the carrot finger armour joke completely sent me

For the past 6 or 7 years, I come back to this channel every few months and my sheer delight everytime is wonderful, I love this channel sm

For a second I thought the carrots with the eyes would start to talk, resulting in a new plotline with twists and turns and themes and schemes following generations would remember...


But then I got a cake and balance returned to my carrot-shaped self. Keep it up!

[Queezbo]

I made this cake and added raisins as instructed. It was wonderful.
