Carrot cake with frosting (with vegan alternative!)
Juicy and delicious! This carrot cake is also super easy and quick to make as a vegan alternative!
The grated carrots and applesauce make this cake incredibly juicy and delicious. To make this cake vegan, only two ingredients (milk and butter) need to be substituted. The recipe is super simple and is ready in no time. Assuming a machine does the grating of the carrots ;-)
Personalization with chocolate has never been so easy!
You can easily create the texts like “carrot cake” and “Rüblikuchen” yourself. The “Text Editor” application in the mycusini Club is available for this purpose. The text "carrot cake" was created using the Aseret font. Simply type in the word “carrot” and confirm. Then enter the word “cake”. The two texts can then be moved to the desired location, ideally so that the two texts connect in one place.
We did the same thing for the “Rüblikuchen” lettering, except we used the Terra font.
Have fun texting! It's a lot of fun because you can eat everything ;-)

Beat all ingredients on high for 1-2 minutes. If you want a softer consistency, you can add 1 tablespoon of milk or vegan plant milk and stir briefly
