Carrot cake with chocolate icing

Preparation mode

• Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease and flour a cake pan.
• In a blender, place the chopped carrots, eggs and oil. Mix until you get a smooth mixture.
• In a large bowl, mix the sugar, wheat flour, baking powder and a pinch of salt.
• Pour the blender mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until everything is well incorporated.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake in the preheated oven for approximately 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
• While the cake is baking, prepare the chocolate frosting. In a pan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the chocolate powder, milk and sugar. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture begins to thicken. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Once the cake is ready, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes in the pan. Then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
• When the cake is completely cool, pour the chocolate frosting over it, spreading it evenly.
• Let the chocolate frosting harden before cutting and serving the cake. You can speed up this process by placing the cake in the refrigerator for a while.
• Serve the carrot cake with chocolate frosting and enjoy!
