Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup vegetable oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 cups (grated) carrots
  • 1 cup chocolate glaze

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 10-cup bundt pan with butter or nonstick spray, making sure to coat all crevices.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups flour, 1.5 tsp baking powder, and 1 tsp cinnamon. In another bowl, beat 1 cup sugar, 3 eggs, and 0.75 cup oil until smooth.

  3. 3

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in 2 cups grated carrots until evenly distributed.

  4. 4

    Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.

  5. 5

    Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.

  6. 6

    Once cool, drizzle 1 cup chocolate glaze over the top, letting it run down the sides. Decorate with colorful candies and carrot-shaped candies if desired.
