Step-by-Step Instructions for Making Carrot Walnut Cake

Step 1: Prepare the Cake Batter

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans or line them with parchment paper.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat together the sugar and oil until well combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. Incorporate the Carrots and Walnuts: Gently fold the grated carrots and chopped walnuts into the wet mixture.

Step 2: Combine and Pour into Pans

  1. Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the cake dense.
  2. Pour into Pans: Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans, smoothing the tops.

Step 3: Bake the Cake

  1. Bake: Place the pans in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  2. Cool the Cakes: Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for about 10 minutes. Then, turn them out onto wire racks to cool completely before frosting.

Step 4: Prepare the Cream Cheese Frosting

  1. Beat Butter and Cream Cheese: In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add Sugar and Vanilla: Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until fluffy and smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5: Assemble the Cake

  1. Frost the Layers: Place one cake layer on a serving plate and spread a generous amount of frosting on top. Place the second layer on top and spread frosting over the top and sides.
  2. Decorate: Garnish with chopped walnuts around the edges or sprinkle them over the top if desired.
