    Carrot Cake with Honey Vanilla Frosting


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    4 cups carrots, grated

    1 cup honey

    1 cup butter

    2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour

    1 teaspoon baking soda

    2 teaspoons cinnamon

    1/2 teaspoon salt

    2 eggs

    2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

    Honey vanilla frosting (see below)

    Recipe



    Gently simmer carrots, honey, and butter 5 minutes; set aside to cool. Combine dry ingredients; set aside. Beat eggs. Combine all ingredients, adding lemon juice last. Pour mixture into well-buttered, floured cupcake or cake pans; bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until done. The larger the pan, the longer the baking takes. Cool cake thoroughly. Ice with Honey-Vanilla Frosting.

    1 package of cream cheese (8 ounces)

    1 stick of butter

    1 cup honey

    2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract



    Cream together all ingredients until smooth preferably with an electric beater. Chill until firm enough to spread. Makes 12 cupcakes or two 8 or 9 inch cakes.
