BEST CARROT CAKE EVER

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine grated carrots and brown sugar. Set aside for 60 minutes, then stir in raisins.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 10 inch cake pans.
• In a large bowl, beat eggs until light. Gradually beat in the white sugar, oil and vanilla. Stir in the pineapple. Combine the flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon, stir into the wet mixture until absorbed. Finally stir in the carrot mixture and the walnuts. Pour evenly into the prepared pans.

SOFT AND CHEWY SPICED CARROT CAKE COOKIES

Steps:

• To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or large mixing bowl with hand mixer), combine the egg, butter, sugars, vanilla, and beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
• Stop, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and add the cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, cloves, optional salt, and beat momentarily to incorporate.
• Add the flour, oats, baking soda, and beat until just combined, less than 1 minute.
• Add the carrots and beat to incorporate, about 30 seconds.
• Add the optional butterscotch chips, raisins, and beat to incorporate, about 30 seconds.
• Using a medium cookie scoop (about 2 tablespoons) or your hands, scoop out mounds of dough (I made 22) and place them on a large plate. Flatten mounds just slightly with heel of your hand.
• Cover plate with plasticwrap and refrigerate dough for at least 3 hours, up to 5 days, before baking. Dough is far too soft and moist, and is unsuitable for baking until it's been chilled or cookies will spread dramatically.
• Preheat oven to 350F, line 2 baking sheets with Silpat Non-Stick Baking Mats, parchment, or spray with cooking spray; set aside. Space dough 2 inches apart (8 per tray) and bake for 9 to 11 minutes (I recommend the lower end of that range), or until tops have just set, even if slightly underbaked and glossy in the center. Cookies firm up as they cool, and baking too long results in cookies that set up too crisp and hard with overdone undersides (The cookies shown in the photos were baked for just over 9 minutes, with trays rotated at the 5-minute mark, and have chewy edges with pillowy, soft centers).
• Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes before removing and transferring to a rack to finish cooling.

• Serve immediately, or store in the fridge in an airtight container until ready to serve.

THE BEST EVER CARROT CAKE, INSPIRED BY AMERICA'S TEST KITCHEN

Steps:

• Combine all purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ground cloves and salt in a mixing bowl. Shred carrots until you have 3 cups (packed) shredded carrots. Baby carrots are convenient since they are already peeled, and if you have a food processor with a shredding disk, it does *grate*! Blend in a food processor or with eggbeaters the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs and vegetable oil. Mix the sugar syrup and carrots into the dry ingredients with a spatula until well combined and no flour streaks remain. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper (12" x 17" pans work well), and pour in batter. Bake at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes (or until a toothpick comes out clean), and let cool completely before frosting. This is a good time to take your cream cheese and butter out of the refrigerator to soften for the cream cheese frosting. For the frosting, in a mixing bowl, combine with eggbeaters the softened cream cheese, softened butter, and vanilla. Sift out 2.5 cups of powdered sugar and gradually beat into the cream cheese mixture.
