So my mom thinks that Cheesecake Factory's carrot cake is to die for. I have never tasted it but told her I would try to make her one just as good with a KAF recipe. However, this recipe looks extremely moist. would this recipe do well as a layered cake? I compared this and the king arthur carrot cake. Which do you think would stand up better for the task? Also, if i decide to add pineapple to the KA carrot cake what should be changed in the recipe? Thanks! I heart KAF!!!!
Howdy! As you probably know, PJ's been out of town at the Housewares Show, but I'll have her take a look at your questions when she gets back and advise on the layering. Thanks! ~ MaryJane Hi - Haven't tried this as a layer cake, but go ahead and try either in two 9" round pans; I'm thinking the KA might be slightly less moist and slightly easier to handle. To add pineapple, use a small (8-ounce) can pineapple, drained and squeezed dry; and reduce the amount of carrots by 1/2 cup. Enjoy - PJH
