Carrot

– 1.5 cup All-purpose flour – 3 tbsp Corn starch – 1 cup Yogurt – ¾ cup Granulated sugar ...

Ingredients

1

– Preheat the oven to 350 deg F. – Grease a cake pan and set aside.

2

– Add the yogurt and sugar in a wide bowl and whisk them together.  – Now add the baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix them and let sit. – The mixture will be emulsified now. Add the vanilla extract and whisk again.

3

– Now slowly pour the oil and whisk the mixture. This helps in excellent emulsification. – Sieve the APF and corn starch to this wet mix and combine gently. – Pour this cake batter into the cake pan and spread it evenly. – Tap it twice, bake the cake.

4

– Once the cake has cooled for 15 minutes, transfer the cake to a plate with high edges like below. I inverted the cake and let the bottom part on the top. I didn’t revert it back.

5

– Let it cool again for 10 minutes, meanwhile, prepare the milk mixture. – Add the whole Milk, condensed Milk and evaporated Milk and mix them well. – Now using a fork, pierce the cake all over the top.

6

– Slowly pour the milk mixture on top of the cake. – Let the cake rest for about 1 hour so that the cake absorbs all the milk mixture.

7

– Add ¾ cup of milk and sugar in a wide bowl and using hand mixture, whisk it nicely until soft peaks are formed. – At this stage, add the custard powder and whisk again until stiff peaks are formed.

8

– After 1 hour, spread the prepared frosting on top of the cake and spread it evenly. – Decorate the edges with maraschino cherries and serve.
