Carrot Cake Bars Recipe

Carrot Cake Bars Ingredients

  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon clove, ground
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3 cups carrots, finely shredded
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup pecans, chopped

Cream Cheese Frosting Ingredients (for 1½ Cups of Frosting)

  • 6 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 teaspoon Super Amazing Creamer
  • 2 teaspoons milk
  • 4½ cups powdered sugar, sifted

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. 
  2. In a large mixing bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and baking soda.
  3. Add carrots, oil, and eggs. Beat the mixture with an electric mixer until it’s just combined. Stir in the chopped pecans.
  4. Transfer to a greased 13x9x2 inch baking pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool cake in the pan on a wire rack.

Gradually add 2 cups of sifted powdered sugar, beating the mixture well. Gradually beat in 2 to 2½ cups additional sifted powdered sugar until mixture is spreadable.
