Carrot Cake

There are gazillion recipes out there for the best carrot cake and I think I've found one which tops the list. It's so moist and the cream balances it out into smoothness. 

You'll need:
  • 500g finely grated carrots
  • 400g sugar
  • 320g flour 
  • 4 eggs
  • 250ml sunflower oil
  • 4 tea spoons baking soda
  • 100g chopped walnuts
  • 1 table spoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 tea spoon ground nutmeg
  • 250g curd cheese
  • 200g ricotta
  • 4 table spoons sugar (add more if you want it sweeter)
  • 1 table spoon turmeric (I was going for yellow color but it didn't turn as yellow as I wanted)
1) Mix everything for the batter till incorporated well and pour into your baking pan.
2) Bake for about 1 hour at 180°C.
3) When it's cooled down, prepare your cheese mixture and slice the cake in half and put the cheese in and then onto the top.
4) To make it look fancier, use some of that shredded carrot to decorate.
