Baking Workshop 5/29, Monday Morning

Piper smiled at the students as they arrived. "Just so you all are clear, none of my ingredients are demonic. I know some of you were wondering last week."

She couldn't help snickering a little before pointing out the carrot cake sitting on the counter in front of her. "We're going to make carrot cake today. As you can see, I made one for the class. Feel free to take a slice."

She gave each student a list of ingredients and instructions. "I'll be around if you have any questions. Good luck."



Equipment Needed

Mixer

Paper Plates

Grater

Measuring Cups

Measuring Spoons

Spatula

Non-stick cooking spray

Cooling Rack


Ingredients

2 Cups Sugar

1 Cup Corn Oil

3 Eggs

1 Can Pineapple (15oz)

2 Cups Grated Carrots

2 Cups White Raisins

1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

2 Cups Toasted pecans

3 Cups Flour

2 teaspoons Baking Powder

1 teaspoon Salt

1 teaspoon Cinnamon

1 teaspoon Baking Soda

1 Cup Powdered Sugar (for lemon icing)

2 Lemons (for lemon icing)


Instructions

Mix together until well blended:

2 Cups Sugar

1 Cup Corn Oil

3 Eggs

1 Can Pineapple (15oz)

2 Cups Grated Carrots

2 Cups White Raisins

1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

2 Cups Toasted pecans


Pre-heat oven to 350F


Mix together on a paper plate:

3 Cups Flour

2 teaspoons Baking Powder

1 teaspoon Salt

1 teaspoon Cinnamon

1 teaspoon Baking Soda


Spray your cake pan with cooking spray, make sure you cover all the inside of the cake pan.

Pour the cake batter into the cake pan and bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 1 hour.


Make icing while the cake is in the oven:

Take your two lemons and grate 1 teaspoon lemon peel.

Juice the two lemons that you just finished grating.

Mix together:

1 teaspoon lemon zest

Juice of the Two Lemons

2 Cups powdered sugar


Cut the cake loose once it's finished baking.

Take a knife and cut the edge of the cake loose from the pan around the outside and around the center stem.

Shake the cake back and forth until it seems to be detached form the pan.

Now put a cooling rack on top of the cake and then flip it over.

Remove the cake pan and let the carrot cake cool.

Add the icing to your carrot cake.

"A combination of parents, bad marks, and the mall," Jude replied mellowly, unconcerned.

"My folks sent me here too," Willow said. "They thought it'd be safer than my old school."
