Carrot Cake!

Ecco la torta di carote con frosting di formaggio dolce e panna che ho fatto oggi in un momento di incupimento da tempo balordo!
Notare il piatto da ristorante 5 stelle (ne ho preso solo 1 per le presentazioni culinarie) e il vino che si scola babbino!
Ecco la ricetta trovata sul sito della BBC good food (che gli inglesi mangino bene e´tutto un programma ).

Ingredients :
300g plain flour
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking powder
bicarbonate of soda
200g soft brown sugar
4 eggs
250ml oil
1 orange , zested
1 lemon , zested
200g carrots , finely grated
150g walnuts , chopped ( io non ce le ho messe)

For the cheese cream frosting:
125g unsalted butter at room temperature
50g icing sugar
250g cream cheese

Ricetta:
Heat the oven to 150C/fan 130C/gas 2. Line a 20cm, 10cm deep cake tin. Sift the flour, cinnamon, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda together and stir in the sugar. Beat the eggs with the oil and citrus zests. Stir in the carrots and fold everything into the flour mixture. Fold in the walnuts and pineapple if using. Spoon the mixture into the tin and bake for 1 hour 20 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. Cool.
For the frosting, beat the butter and icing sugar together until soft and then beat in the cream cheese. Chill the mixture until it's thick but spreadable. Spread a thick layer on top of the cake, making sure the side of the icing is flat and continues upwards from the side of the cake.
