CARROT LAYER CAKE
My sister gave me this recipe for what she calls "the ultimate carrot cake," and it really lives up to the name. When people taste it, they're bowled over by the tender, not-too-sweet cake and unexpected pecan filling. -Linda Van Holland, Innisfail, Alberta

TRISHA YEARWOOD'S 6-LAYER CARROT CAKE
I saw Trisha Yearwood prepare this on a daytime talk show last year, and then saw it again being prepared on the Live With Kelly show this morning. It looks so good that I really want to make it soon. I never thought of first cooking carrots before preparing a carrot cake, nor did I think to slice the layers. But it looks so scrumptious, so I will try to take the time to go that extra step. Prep time doesn't include the overnight refrigeration.

Steps:
- FOR THE CAKE: Preheat the oven to 350°F Grease the bottom of three 9-inch, round cake pans with cooking spray, line with circles of parchment paper, and grease the paper with cooking spray.
- With an electric mixer, cream the sugar, oil, eggs and vanilla. Sift together flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the sugar mixture. Add the walnuts, coconut, carrot puree and pineapple. Beat until smooth.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared pans and bake for 40 to 45 minutes at 350°F or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool the layers in the pans for about 5 minutes. Run a knife around the edges of each pan and turn the layers out onto wire racks that have been sprayed with cooking spray. Cool the layers completely before frosting. (Note: After the layers have cooled, cutting will be much easier if you wrap each cooled cake layer in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.).
- CREAM CHEESE FROSTING: Combine the cream cheese and butter in an electric mixer and beat until smooth. Slowly add the confectioners' sugar and continue beating until fully combined. Add the vanilla.
- Slice each cake layer horizontally in half using an electric knife. Ease a piece of parchment between the layers and lift off the top portion. Frost the bottom slice then add the next layer. Continue until the entire cake is frosted.
- Press the chopped walnuts into the sides of the cake. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

LAYERED CARROT CAKE
I never liked carrot cake until I tried this one. The rich, moist cake with orange-flavored frosting is now a family tradition for special occasions. Sometimes I add cranberries with the raisins. -Anna Morgan, Eatonville, Washington

- In a medium bowl, beat together with an electric mixer the canola oil and sugar. Beat very well, about 1 minute.
- Add the egg, cinnamon and vanilla and beat another 30 seconds. Beat in the carrot for about 15 seconds--you want it to break up a bit so it stains the batter orange. Sprinkle the flour and baking powder on top and beat until just combined. Do not overmix. You may stir in the walnuts at this point or save them for the frosting, your choice.
- Pour the batter into the pan, place it on a baking sheet, and bake for 24-26 minutes. Test for doneness with a toothpick before removing from the oven--moist crumbs clinging to the toothpick is ideal.

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour three 8-inch round cake pans. If you want you can put rounds of parchment on the bottom of each pan and grease the parchment.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon, making sure all ingredients are very evenly distributed. This is very important because unevenly distributed baking soda has been known to cause carrots to turn green.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer using the whisk attachment, beat the eggs on medium, increasing slightly to medium high. When eggs are frothy, gradually add the sugar and continue beating until light and lemon color. With the mixer going, gradually add the oil letting it trickle down the side.
- Remove the bowl from the stand and with a heavy duty scraper (or your favorite mixing spoon) stir in the flour mixture until it is evenly blended. Once flour is incorporated, stir in the carrots, raisins (if using) and nuts.
