INGREDIENTS

  • Cake

    • 2 cups white sugar
    • 🥚 3 eggs
    • ½ cup vegetable oil
    • 🥕 3 carrots, quartered
    • 2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 tablespoon baking powder

  • Chocolate Sauce

    • ½ cup white sugar
    • ½ cup cocoa powder
    • 🥛 6 tablespoons milk
    • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

STEPS

1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 10-inch cake pan and dust with flour.

2

Combine 2 cups sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, and carrots in a blender; blend until very smooth, about 5 minutes.

3

Pour carrot mixture into a bowl; add flour and baking powder. Mix well to combine. Pour into the prepared cake pan.

4

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Invert onto a wire rack to cool.

5

Combine 1/2 cup sugar, cocoa powder, milk, and butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce begins to bubble and thicken, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and quickly spread over cake.
