CARROT CAKE MIXES RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350°F. Spray bottom of 13x9-inch pan with nonstick cooking spray. In a large bowl, mix together flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Add grated carrots and toss to coat. Set aside.
• In a mixing bowl, using medium speed of electric mixer, beat eggs, sugar and vanilla. Add oil and pineapple, mix well. In batches on low speed, add carrot mixture, mix until combined. Pour into your pan. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• To make the cream cheese frosting, run a dry whisk or fork through the powdered sugar to break up any lumps and set aside. In a medium mixing bowl, using electric mixer at medium speed, beat cream cheese, butter and vanilla until very smooth. Turn the mixer on low speed and add in the powdered sugar in batches.
• Cool cake completely, about 1 hour. Frost with the cream cheese frosting.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350, spray your bundt pan with non-stick cooking spray.
• Plump raisins by placing them in a bowl and pouring boiling water over them just until they are covered. Set aside while you prepare the rest of the cake. (5-10 minutes or so will do the trick!)
• Mix cake mix, flour, carrots, eggs and water together on low speed in your mixer until combined, then on high for two minutes.
• Drain the water from the raisins, fold them and the chopped walnuts into the cake batter by hand.
• Pour into prepared bundt pan. Bake for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
• Remove the cake and cool slightly, about 10 minutes, before inverting it onto a plate.
• Prepare the glaze: In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter, stirring constantly. Butter will begin to brown to an amber color and become fragrant. Be careful not to let it burn. Remove from heat and add in vanilla. Whisk in powdered sugar, spices, and milk. Add more sugar if you want it a little thicker. Drizzle over warm (not hot) cake.
• Serve.
• Store in an airtight container.
