METHOD:
1) Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
Prepare three 9" round cake pans or one 13" x 9" pan with pan spray and line their
bottoms with parchment paper.
2) Soak Dark Raisins in warm Orange
Juice for about 15 minutes. Lightly squeeze raisins to remove
excess Orange Juice and discard all juice.
3) In a large bowl whisk together Eggs and Oil.
Add and stir together Salt, Sugar, Pineapple, Grated Carrots, Raisins, Coconut
and Vanilla Extract.
4) In a separate larger bowl combine Cake Flour, Baking Powder,
Baking Soda and Cinnamon. Then sift these dry ingredients 3 times.
5) Using a rubber spatula, stir the wet ingredients into the dry
ingredients. Add the Walnuts and stir until evenly combined.
6) Bake the three 9" cake pans at 350F degrees for approximately
25 minutes. Or, bake the one 13" x 9" cake pan at 350F degrees for approximately
45 minutes. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes-out
clean. Allow to cool in the pan(s).
7) Prepare
Frosting. Beat Cream Cheese, Butter and Vanilla Extract until
"just" smooth. Sift the Powdered Sugar very well, then add to
the cream cheese mixture and blend until smooth. |
