Carrot Cake

It really is a gorgeous cake – birthday or no birthday. I don’t always love recipes that use ‘cups’ but the ingredients here really lend themselves to measuring in this way and it really does make for super quick and easy preparation. The mixture is pretty runny – almost a batter – but don’t worry, this is exactly how it should be. I have a small ladle that I use to put the mixture into the paper cases which seems to help handle the runniness without getting into a right old mess.
