  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Instructions
 

How To Make The Cakes

  • Sift all the dry ingredients, including the spices, and set them aside.
    2 cups All-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon Baking soda, 1 teaspoon Baking powder, ½ teaspoon Salt, ½ tablespoon Cinnamon, ½ teaspoon Clove, ½ teaspoon Ginger, ¼ teaspoon Nutmeg
  • Beat the room-temperature butter until smooth.
    ½ cup Butter
  • Add the sugars and beat well for another 5 minutes. The mixture should become light in color and fluffy.
    ½ cup Granulated sugar, ½ cup Brown sugar
  • Next, mix the eggs and vanilla extract until the eggs are incorporated.
    2 Eggs, 1 tablespoon Vanilla extract
  • Add the dry ingredients and gently mix.
    1½ cups Carrots
  • In the end, fold in the grated carrots and gently mix them. Cover the batter with cling wrap and chill for an hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 350℉, scoop the batter onto the lined baking tray, and bake for 15 minutes or until the top of the cake is dome-shaped and set. Let the cakes cool down completely before frosting.

How To Make The Frosting

  • Beat the room-temperature cream cheese until soft and smooth.
    8 ounce Cream cheese
  • Add the butter and beat the mixture for at least 7-8 minutes until the mixture is pale and fluffy.
    ½ cup Butter
  • Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Beat until just incorporated. Beating the frosting after adding sugar makes it runny.
    3 cups Powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • Use a piping bag with a star tip to pipe the frosting on one half of the cakes. Place the second half on top of the frosting and gently press.
