Brazilian-Style Carrot Cake with Chocolate Sauce

Brazilian-Style Carrot Cake with Chocolate Sauce
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 carrots, quartered
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • Chocolate Sauce:
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 6 tablespoons milk
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter


  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 10-inch cake pan and dust with flour.
  2. Combine 2 cups sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, and carrots in a blender; blend until very smooth, about 5 minutes.
  3. Pour carrot mixture into a bowl; add flour and baking powder. Mix well to combine. Pour into the prepared cake pan.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Invert onto a wire rack to cool.
  5. Combine 1/2 cup sugar, cocoa powder, milk, and butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce begins to bubble and thicken, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and quickly spread over cake.
