Yesterday I baked the carrot cake from the Mother's Bistro cookbook. Personally, I would not have included so much pineapple (it called for an entire 20 ounce can, drained) and Colin suggested I add raisins next time, but other than that, it was really good. Of course I took pictures. Samuel and Jude dipped their carrots in the cream cheese frosting remnants:
Colin insisted on cutting into the cake and trying a piece even before our company arrived for dinner.
And here is how the inside turned out. Pretty good consistency which I can attribute to steaming and pureeing the carrots as part of the batter. Very moist.
Yes, that is a dinosaur plate. It's all that was clean.

I love the Mother's Bistro cookbook! awesome job on the cake, it looks fantastic. dinosaur plate and all. =)
To add raisins or not to add raisins...that is the question! ;) Here too...Ben doesn't like them, I do! what'cha going to do...maybe do it in half the batter? :)
