Teigen’s favorite carrot cake recipe comes from the good folks over at Southern Living Magazine. Unlike those tragic root vegetable dessert pucks you may have had as a kid, this cake is anything but dry. The cake itself is kept moist with grated carrot and crushed pineapple, then enriched with shredded coconut and chopped pecans or walnuts.
Of course, it wasn’t your average carrot cake at all…it was a four-tiered carrot cake decorated with frosting and floral arrangements that was definitely at least two feet tall. Not that we can compete with the extravagance of her wedding cake, but Chrissy may be on to something.
The cake, which is a recipe from Southern Living, stands out from others because in addition to the obvious shredded carrots, the cake batter is bolstered with crushed pineapple and shredded coconut. Once baked, each layer topped with a caramelized buttermilk glaze and frosted with the classic cream cheese icing.
Fold in carrot and next 3 ingredients. Pour batter into prepared cake pans and bake at 350° for 25 to 30 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. 4. Make the glaze: Bring all ingredients to a boil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
