Carrot And Cinnamon Classic Christmas Cake

by Shaheen Ali

Yayy! It’s Christmas again… the best time to indulge yourself of all kinds of guilty desserts. For once forget all the diet and enjoy the festival with some amazing baked goodies. This year I am planning to make a special Christmas meal, and to begin with my first stop was desserts. It’s not just this time i’m making desserts first, in fact for every reason i feel like making desserts in first place. Specially when it is a classic aromatic and flavorful cake. Yes, this is a Carrot and Cinnamon cake, as i never bake boozy cakes, hence for me anything that gives equally delicious flavor and a captivating aroma is a must.

I made a Classic Carrot & Cinnamon Cake today and frosted it with a layer of cream cheese. Decorated with some hand made (DIY) tree toppings and some star sprinklers. Now wasn’t that easy? Yes i like keeping things simple yet beautiful…isn’t it! Frosting the cake is completely optional, as it is for the occasion hence i did this much, or else i prefer keeping my cakes naked.

So if you are a non boozy person like me and still want to have a rich exotic cake for the season, then you are at the right place. This cake is certainly a show stopper and will leave your gusts asking for more. Check out the recipe soon, like it, rate it and do not forget to share it. 🙂 Merry Christmas Everyone !!!
