TWD: Bills Big Carrot Cake

April 22nd, 2008

I know, I know, I’m a little late, but I got my new computer at work which is WAY more exciting than uploading my ugly picture I snapped quickly last night before I went to bed.  I mean my new comp is awesome.  More hard drive space than I can use up, 4 gigs ram so I can have a bazillion things open and still have a rocking comp.   A massive 20 or 22 inch wide screen moitor annnnd I can leave it on my desk because it’s slim so when I have to burn CD’s on a regular basis I don’t have play around under my desk.  Because of how my desk is set up it’s a hugemongous pain in the rear and I burn CDs daily.

Ok on to the carrot cake.  Laurie had mentioned that it seemed like a lot of carrots.  I was amused while I was grating them so I grated all three cups and it was too much.  I like carrots, but 3 cups?  In one cake?  It’s just too much.  All in all I really liked this cake, but next time I would use less carrots.  I think I may even try it sometime without any carrots.  I’ll call it a not so carrot cinnamon coconut cake.  Mmm now that sounds delish.

    I agree that it seemed like a ton of carrots for the batter. Looks like yours turned out super moist!

    Oh, the new computer sounds like something to get geeked up about. My husband installed a magical chip last weekend to max out the memory on my laptop. Booyah!

    Dude!!? You wrote more about your new comp than the carrot cake… I see where your loyalties lie. Hruummph!

    I actually liked the way it tasted with all of those carrots. Which surprised me; I’m not a carrot fan.

    And I think your photo looks great!

    Your cake looks delicious! Carrot-less carrot cake sounds creative… ;)

    That cake look delicious and sexy but yeah, 3 cups of carrots makes me pause in concern for taste.

  15. Donna on April 25, 2008 12:50 am

    Yeah, I was scared with that many carrots too. Your cake does look delicious!
    And congrats on that new computer!
