For the Cream Cheese Frosting:

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. Make the Cake Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. In a large bowl, beat the eggs, vegetable oil, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in the grated carrots, nuts, and pineapple, if using.
  3. Bake the Cakes: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove from pans and cool completely on wire racks.
  4. Make the Frosting: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until creamy. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Assemble the Cake: Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread frosting over the top. Place the second layer on top and frost the top and sides of the cake. Decorate as desired and serve.
