The top of the Brazilian carrot cake covered in rich brigadeiro

A delicious layer of brigadeiro spread smoothly over the cake’s surface!

Ingredients for the cake batter:
Here’s what you’ll need to prepare the batter:

- Carrots – the recipe calls for 300g, but be sure to weigh them after peeling.

- Granulated sugar – caster sugar works just as well.

- Vegetable oil – any neutral-flavored oil is fine, though I prefer vegetable oil.

- Eggs

- Vanilla extract
All-purpose flour – also known as plain flour.

Baking powder
Salt – just a pinch to bring out the other flavors.
