The top of the Brazilian carrot cake after the brigadeiro was poured over it.
Ingredients for the cake
Here are the ingredients you will need to make the cake batter:


Carrots – in the recipe card below, I’ve said to use 300g. Make sure to weigh them after you have peeled the carrots, not before.
Granulated sugar – caster sugar works too.
Vegetable oil – any flavourless oil does work, but I like to use vegetable oil.
Eggs
Vanilla extract
Plain flour – also known as all purpose flour.
Baking powder
Salt – just a small amount to help enhance the flavours.
