Ruffles of white chocolate-cream cheese frosting take this carrot cake to the next level. Seen from above, it looks like a rose. Make this cake a day or two ahead for the best flavor.

Steps:
- Cake:Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush two 8-inch round cake panswith butter. Line pans with parchment rounds; brush parchment
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg until thoroughly combined, 30 seconds. Beat eggs with granulated sugar on medium-high speed until pale, fluffy, and doubled in volume, about 5 minutes. While still beating, slowly drizzle in butter, then beat in vanilla until combined. Reduce speed to low and add all but 1/2 cup of flour mixture, beating just until combined. Toss carrots with remaining flour mixture to evenly coat, then fold into batter. Divide batter evenly between pans; smooth tops with an offset spatula.
- Bake until cakes are puffed slightly and a tester inserted into centers comes out clean, 33 to 37 minutes. Transfer pans to a wire rack; let cool 10 minutes. Turn cakes out onto rack; remove parchment and let cool completely.
- Frosting:Meanwhile, beat cream cheese on medium-high speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. While still beating, gradually add chocolate until smooth, scraping down bowl as needed. Add butter and lemon juice; beat to combine. Reduce speed to low; beat in confectioners' sugar, 1/4 cup at a time, until smooth and combined.
- Cut each cake horizontally into 2 layers with a serrated knife. Place bottom layer of one cake, cut-side up, on a cake stand, preferably revolving, or a plate lined with parchment strips. Spread evenly with 3/4cup frosting. Top with other half of cake, cut-side down; spread evenly with another 3/4 cup frosting. Repeat layering and frosting with second cake. Spread 1 cup frosting evenly over top and sides to create a crumb coat. Refrigerate, uncovered, until frosting is firm, at least 30 minutes.
- Transfer remaining frosting to a pastry bag fitted with a petal tip, such as Ateco or Wilton #104. Starting at top center of cake and holding tip vertically, pipe frosting while slowly turning stand or plate, gradually working outward toward edges to create a swirl effect. Repeat process down side of cake, starting at top edge. (Sides will be easier to decorate if you keep large end of tip touching or almost touching cake, holding pointed tip perpendicular to cake while tracing down side.) If frosting starts to get too loose, refrigerate briefly just until firm, but not long enough to harden. Cake can be stored, uncovered, at room temperature up to 12 hours or refrigerated, uncovered, up to 2 days; bring to room temperature before serving.

Add the carrots, applesauce and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients and mix until combined. Stir in 1/4 cup of the chopped walnuts.
- Divide the batter among the muffin cups. Bake until a toothpick comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

CARROT CAKE CUPCAKES WITH WHITE CHOCOLATE CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
I loooove carrot cake cupcakes and found this recipe on AllRecipes and wanted it for my RecipeZarr cookbook :] I modified it as I deemed necessary (substituting 1/2 c. of applesauce and 1/4 c. of vegetable oil for the full 1/2 cup of vegetable oil, added 1/2 c. more shredded carrots, and halved the frosting recipe). I really enjoy toasted coconut in my carrot cake, and would probably add 1/2 to 1 cup of it if desired.

CARDAMOM SPICED CARROT CAKE WITH WHITE CHOCOLATE CREAM CHEESE ICING
Steps:
- For the cake:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 3 (8-inch) round cake pans and line the bottom of the pans with parchment paper. Spray the paper and pans with baking spray. Set the pans aside until ready to use.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the oil and sugars together until combined. Mix in the vanilla and add the eggs, 1 at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the carrots and pineapple and mix until combined.
- In a large bowl sift together the 2 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cardamom and cinnamon. With the mixer speed on low, add the flour mixture to the carrot mixture alternately with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the flour. Mix until just combined. In a small bowl, toss the pecans with the remaining 1 tablespoon of flour. Fold the pecans into the batter.
- Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean, about 35 to 45 minutes. Cool the cakes in the pans on wire racks for 15 minutes. Remove the cakes from the pans and cool completely on the racks.

Reduce the speed to low and gradually add the confectioners' sugar. Mix until combined. Add the vanilla and white chocolate. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat until smooth, about 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside 1 cup of icing for decoration. Add the heavy cream and beat until combined.
- To frost the cake, arrange 1 cake layer on a cake plate. Spread the top with the cream cheese icing and top with a second and third cake layer, spreading the icing between each layer. Spread the icing on top and around the sides of the cake. Apply the almonds to the sides of the frosted cake. Fill a pastry bag, fitted with a star tip, with the reserved icing and pipe a border around the top of the cake. Cut the cake and serve.

Steps:
- Beat the softened butter to a soft and even consistency. Add the orange juice, if using, then the icing sugar. Cream until you have a smooth, soft buttercream consistency.
- Add the cream cheese and work it in - don't beat it in, just slowly mix with a wooden spoon. Depending on how soft the mixture is, you may want to put it in the fridge for 10 mins at this point. If it's runny, it will firm up again. It should be spreadable and not run off the cake.

WHITE CHOCOLATE CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
This recipe comes from "The Cake Bible" by Rose Levy Beranbaum. This ivory-colored buttercream is mellow and creamy - a perfect compliment for cheesecake. It makes an unusual and spectacular presentation because it pipes wonderfully and is the identical color of the cheesecake within. White chocolate adds firmness, texture, sweetness, and an undefinable flavor

Steps:
- Break the chocolate into individual squares and place in a bowl set over a pot of hot water (no hotter than 160 F) on low heat.
- The water must not touch the bottom of the bowl.
- Remove the pot from the heat and stir until the chocolate begins to melt.
- Return to the heat if the water cools, but be careful it does not get too hot.
- Stir until smooth.
- (The chocolate may be melted in a microwave on high power if stirred every 15 seconds. Remove before fully melted and stir, using the residual heat to complete the melting.) Allow the chocolate to cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally.
- In a mixing bowl beat the cream cheese (preferably with a flat beater) until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually beat in the cooled chocolate until smoothly incorporated.
- Beat in the butter and lemon juice.
- Use at once or to ensure smoothness rebeat at ROOM TEMPERATURE (to prevent it from curdling) before frosting.
- Store: 1 day room temperature, 2 weeks refrigerated, 2 months frozen.
- Allow to come to room temperature before rebeating.
- Pointers for success: Do not overheat the chocolate and stir constantly while melting.
- Be sure no moisture gets into the melted chocolate.
- Beat constantly while adding the chocolate to prevent lumping.
- If lumping should occur, it can be remedied by pressing the buttercream through a fine strainer.
- Buttercream may separate slightly if room temperature is very warm.
- This can be corrected by setting the bowl in ice water and whisking the mixture.
- The buttercream becomes spongy on standing.
- Rebeat to restore smoothy creamy texture.
- Use ice to chill your hand during piping to maintain firm texture of the buttercream.
