OLD-FASHIONED CARROT CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
A pleasingly moist cake, this treat is the one I requested that my mom make each year for my birthday. It's dotted with sweet carrots and a hint of cinnamon. The fluffy buttery frosting is scrumptious with chopped walnuts stirred in. One piece of this homemade carrot cake is never enough-better than all the other carrot cakes recipes I've tried!-Kim Orr, West Grove, Pennsylvania

- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Prepare 2 9-inch cake pans: trace the bottom of each pan onto parchment paper, cut it out, and place in the bottom of the pan.
- Then generously spray the paper and the sides of the pans with nonstick spray.In a large bowl or stand mixer, beat together white sugar, brown sugar, oil, Greek yogurt, vanilla, 4 eggs, and pineapple. (don't drain it!)In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, (don't pack your flour! Spoon it into the measuring cup.), baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.Add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until combined.Use a box grater to shred the carrots.
- It's annoying to do this by hand, but if you use a food processor, the shredded pieces will be too big and won't melt into the cake.If you are adding pecans to the cake, toast the chopped pecans in a small skillet for a few minutes on medium until they start to smell good and are lightly browned.Fold in the carrots and pecans.Pour the batter into the prepared pans, do your best to distribute evenly.
- If you have a kitchen scale you can weigh them.Bake at 325 for 38-40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.Wait about 20-30 minutes, then run a knife along the edge and flip the cakes onto cooking racks.
