Brazilian Carrot Cake

If you like carrot cake then you will LOVE Brazilian carrot cake.

Brazilians had the BEST idea of covering their carrot cakes with a delicious chocolate sauce - Something I personally have never seen anywhere else in the world.

Both the cake and the sauce are super easy to make.

I've included the recipe that I use below;

Cake Ingredients

3 medium sized carrots

3 eggs

3/4 cup vegetable oil

2 cups flour

1.5 cup sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

Sauce Ingredients

1 cup sugar

1 cup chocolate powder

1/4 cup milk

50 grams butter

Instructions;

❁ Add the carrots, the eggs and the oil in a blender and blend it for at least 5 minutes.

❁ In a bowl, mix flour, sugar and baking powder.

❁ Pour the carrot-egg-oil puree in to the dry ingredients mixture.

❁ Place in a 8-inch cake pan and bake for 45min at 180°C.

For the sauce;

❁ Mix sugar, chocolate powder, milk and butter in a saucepan and mix it well.

❁ When it comes to a boil, wait 1 minute and turn off the heat.

❁ Pour over the cake.

Enjoy!
