Cinnamon Carrot Cake

Ingredients

  • Cake
  • 2 cups unbleached flour
  • 1 1/4 cups Splenda sugar substitute for baking
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 3 egg whites
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup raisins
  • 2 cups grated carrots
  • 1/2 cup water packed crushed pineapple, drained
  • 1 cup unsweetened apple sauce
  • Cream Cheese Frosting
  • 8 ounces nonfat cream cheese
  • 1 tablespoon skim milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons DaVinci Gourmet Vanilla Sugar Free Syrup
  • 1 1/2 cups light whipped topping

Directions

Serves: 12

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Place flour, sugar, baking soda and cinnamon in a large bowl. Stir to mix well. Add the applesauce, pineapple, egg whites, carrots, vanilla extract and raisins.
  2. Coat a 9 by 13 inch glass baking pan with non stick cooking spray. Spread the batter in the pan and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the top springs back when lightly touched or a wooden toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool to room temperature.
  3. Place the cream cheese, milk, vanilla extract and syrup in a medium sized bowl. Beat with electric mixer until smooth. Gently fold in the whipped topping. Spread the frosting over the cooled sake. Serve immediately or refrigerate.
