How to cook deliciously - Pineapple Carrot Cake

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Add the canola oil, eggs and baby food to the dry mixture and blend very well. If you use an electric mixer, beat on low speed. Add the pineapple and nuts to the batter and mix well.

2. Stage

Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans, then divide the batter evenly between them. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove them and let them finish cooling on a wire rack.

3. Stage

In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and softened butter until the mixture is smooth. Beat in the vanilla extract and confectioners' sugar until the mixture becomes spreadable.

4. Stage

Spread the frosting on top of one cake, stack the other cake on top of the first, then spread the rest of the frosting around the top and sides of the two-layer cake. Garnish the frosted cake with more nuts and edible blossoms, if desired.
