Top a brownie base with three flavors of ice cream and a heavenly meringue for an easy holiday dessert that will truly wow the crowd.

- I recommend using a 4-quart bowl to shape ice cream; bowl should have a 9-inch circumference to match the diameter of the brownie base.

- Brownie will rise to the top of the pan during baking, but does not overflow.  

- Crack eggs in a separate bowl to make sure egg is okay, and you do not get any shell into the rest of your mixture.

- For speed, I melted the chocolate and butter for the brownie – 2 minutes on high.  1 minute, stir, then additional minute.

- Baked brownie for 50 minutes; bake until set.

- Egg whites should be at room temperature to allow for faster development of soft white foam, then start adding sugar for stiff peaks of the meringue.

- Make sure plate that baked Alaska is placed on is oven proof; about 12–inches in diameter.

- While preparing meringue, keep brownie and ice cream in freezer for easier application of meringue.

- To create “swirly peaks” of meringue on the dessert, use the back of spoon.

- When baking the meringue, watch constantly, as meringue will brown quickly – pending your oven’s thermostat – we found ours to be perfect at 2 minutes.

- Once you have removed the baked Alaska from the oven, let the dessert temper 15 minutes before trying to slice.

- Use a knife that is sharp, and that has been placed in hot water, makes the dessert easier to slice.

- Use your favorite ice cream flavors –  such as chocolate ice cream, coffee ice cream, etc.

Go ahead and use any flavor of ice cream in place of vanilla. Chocolate chip, cookies and cream or cherry are all scrumptious choices.

Substitution

For spreading ease, let the ice cream soften at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes. To make it even smoother, place it in a large bowl and stir with a sturdy wooden spoon. One word of caution: Try not to let the ice cream get overly soft or melt.

Does carrot cake really taste like carrots? While this classic favorite is made with freshly shredded carrots, it tastes more like a spice cake bursting with cinnamon and walnut goodness. Topped with a luscious cream cheese frosting, it’s a match made in heaven. It’s the perfect ending to holiday meals (we love it at Easter or at Thanksgiving, decorated with pumpkin candies and candy corn) but make it your go to for any occasion or even for snacking—it’s just that versatile. Our fans give this a top rating…and we know why! Not only does it have the right balance of flavors, but it only takes 20 minutes to prep and turns out beautifully every time because it’s been thoroughly tested in the Betty Crocker Kitchens by food experts. No matter what level baker you are—you can be assured this recipe will bring you rave reviews every time you make it.

Betty Crocker’s top-rated carrot cake recipe is swoon-worthy! Our sweet spice cake with walnuts and topped with the perfect cream cheese frosting.

Greasing and flouring cake pans for this kind of dense, moist cake is your most important first step (after properly pre-heating your oven), especially if you want to unmold cake rounds to stack. Generously grease the pans, then spoon a couple of teaspoons of flour in—tap the pan back and forth or in a circular motion, so the flour just lightly coats the surface. Be sure to coat the sides with flour, too. Tap out any excess. 

Treat this as an after-school snacking cake—pour the batter into two square 8-inch baking pans. Bake them up, making one unfrosted cake available for the kids right away, allowing them to frost or ice their own pieces as they go. Wrap and stash the second cake in the freezer as directed below until you need it.

Some people aren’t nut fans, so consider adding some golden raisins or snipped apricots if you leave them out. Or if walnuts aren’t a favorite, try toasted pecans or macadamia nuts; both offer a contrasting texture without infusing a strong nut flavor into the cake.

Save yourself time using a 16-ounce container of Betty Crocker™ Rich & Creamy Cream Cheese Frosting instead of the from-scratch recipe.

Yes, yes, and yes! The sweet, tangy flavor of cream cheese frosting makes the flavors of this carrot cake sing (and oh, so indulgent). That’s why we’ve included the best cream cheese frosting for carrot cake, right with the recipe. Other frostings won’t enhance the flavor of our best carrot cake like cream cheese frosting does. To make a luscious and smooth cream cheese frosting, it’s important to soften the butter and cream cheese correctly. Butter that’s been overly softened (so that any of it is melted) will make the frosting too soft and have a thinner consistency. If the cream cheese is at all still cold when making the frosting, tiny lumps can still remain when making the frosting. It is simple to soften sticks of butter perfectly if you take them out of the fridge when the cake is cooling. Remove the cream cheese and butter from the boxes (leaving the wrappers on) and let them stand at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.

Is Cream Cheese Frosting the Best Frosting for Carrot Cake?

Holiday Events: Homemade carrot cake is frequently served at holiday gatherings—everybunny loves it at the big Easter meal! Looking for more <a href="https://www.bettycrocker.com/special-occasions/easter/easter-desserts">Easter dessert ideas</a>? Thanksgiving is another common time to serve it—the rich spice cake has all the coziness of fall. Birthday Cake or Potluck: It’s a super choice to serve as a birthday cake, too, or bring it to a potluck or serve it with a weeknight dinner. Anytime Snack: Frankly, it’s so easy to make and always a hit, you don’t need an occasion to dig in! Got a craving for a sweet treat? This is the recipe to keep it in your hip pocket. The nourishing power of carrots is stealthily hidden within in the cake…so it also makes an everyday great snack.

When Are the Best Occasions to Serve Carrot Cake?

Our carrot cake is so delicious, it’s doubtful you will have any leftovers. If you do, you can enjoy the remaining cake later—as it will be as fresh as the day you made it. The carrots add moistness to the cake which helps it hold up to storage. Refrigerate: Carrot cake (frosted) can be covered and stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. If you baked our carrot cake recipe in a rectangular pan, just cover it with plastic wrap! For a layer cake, simply wrap it on the plate it's on with plastic wrap. Frozen: Unfrosted cooled carrot cake can be removed from the pan or wrapped in the pan with plastic wrap and frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw: To thaw, loosen plastic wrap and place in refrigerator for several hours or overnight. Continue as directed in Step 3.

How Should Carrot Cake be Stored?

Yes! This moist, delicious homemade carrot cake is very accommodating! You can make it the day before you serve it, and the flavor will even be better, as the ingredients get a chance to mingle, and it will still be at its peak of freshness! It will stay fresh for 3 to 5 days. Or make the cake portion of the recipe and freeze it using our freezing directions above. It will still be fresh. When you’re ready to serve it, simply make the frosting and frost the cake to enjoy. 

Can carrot cake be made ahead of time? 

Powdered Sugar: If you love a good carrot cake twist, try sprinkling it with powdered sugar, instead of the cream cheese frosting. Or drizzle it with a simple glaze made with powdered sugar mixed with a tiny amount of water. 
Peanut Butter: Peanut butter would make a great frosting, too! Stir in a tablespoon or two of softened butter to make it easier to spread and lather it over the top of the cake! 
Whipped Cream and Fresh Fruit: You could also top it with sweetened whipped cream and a slice of fresh orange or lemon, for a beautiful presentation.

It’s amazing how well the flavors go together. No matter what recipe you try, you’ll get a lot of raves coming your way!

What are other variations of this recipe? 

For the best carrot cake, always use freshly grated carrots (and carrots that haven’t been hanging out in your vegetable crisper in the fridge for weeks). 
Hand-Held Vegetable Peeler: It’s easy and safest to peel carrots with a simple hand-held vegetable peeler. 
Paring Knife: You could use a paring knife if you don’t have a peeler, but as you use the knife, be sure to peel away from you to prevent injury. 
Food Processor: If you have a food processor, you can shred the carrots in a minute, using a shredding disk. 
Box Grader: Lastly, you can use a box grater and shred them by hand. It’s still only minutes of work. To measure 3 cups of carrots, gently press them into the cup to be sure you are measuring them correctly.
