Amazing Carrot Cake Recipe
My delicious carrot cake recipe is almost too easy to believe and my gosh is it good! The batter has toasted pecans, shredded carrot (of course), and lots of spices! The cake is very moist but not at all oily! Covered in cream cheese frosting and topped with a ring of cute buttercream carrots!

Carrot Cake with Ginger Mascarpone Frosting
RECIPE COURTESY OF INA GARTEN
Level: Easy
Total: 3 hr (includes cooling time)
Active: 40 min
Yield: 8 to 10 servings
Ingredients
2 cups sugar
1 1/3 cups vegetable oil
3 extra-large eggs, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 pound carrots, grated (see Cook's Note)
1 cup raisins
1 cup chopped walnuts
Ginger Mascarpone Frosting, recipe follows
Crystallized ginger (not in syrup), chopped, for garnish
Ginger Mascarpone Frosting:
12 ounces Italian mascarpone cheese, at room temperature
4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
2 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/3 cup minced crystallized ginger (not in syrup)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease two 9-by-2-inch round cake pans, line the bottoms with parchment paper, and grease and flour the pans.
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the sugar, oil, and eggs on medium-high speed for 2 minutes, until light yellow and thickened. Stir in the vanilla. In another bowl, sift together the 2 cups of flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. With the mixer on low, slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ones.
In a medium bowl, toss the carrots, raisins, walnuts, and the 1 tablespoon of flour. Stir into the batter with a rubber spatula. Divide the batter between the prepared pans and smooth the tops. Bake for 10 minutes, lower the heat to 350 degrees F, and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in the pans for 15 minutes, turn out onto a baking rack, and cool completely.
Place one cake on a flat serving plate, rounded-side down. Spread half the frosting on the top (not the sides). Place the second cake on top of the first cake, rounded-side up. Frost just the top of the second cake. Sprinkle with the ginger and serve at room temperature.
Ginger Mascarpone Frosting:
Yield: frosts one 9-inch cake
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the mascarpone, cream cheese, confectioners¿ sugar, cream, and vanilla together for about 1 minute, until light and fluffy. Add the crystallized ginger and salt and beat for 30 seconds more.
Cook’s Note
Grate the carrots by hand on a box grater; if you grate them in a food processor, the carrots will be too wet and the cake might fall. For this episode, Ina added 1/4 cup chopped crystalized ginger to the batter.

I low-key thinks she likes having the bragging rights of saying “yeah people all over the world make my recipes” lol This carrot cake will not disappoint! It’s an old fashioned, tried and true favorite.
It’s crazy moist and fluffy from all that buttermilk, carrot pulp and brown sugar! The oil gives it such an amazing fluffiness! I hope you all enjoy this carrot cake as much as we do!
