Tammy I forgot to say to watch yourself in this bad weather we are having all over right now. I live in California and it has been horrible. It has rained so much and snowed so much and still raining and the snow is melting and we are in a huge mess right now. Please take good care and be careful....Keeping everyone in prayer. God's Blessing to all here on this site with Collard Valley Cooks....
I love this woman she's so precious. If I may add I forgo adding flour to the raisins and soak them in hot coffee or hot water they are so much more plump and moist in a cake. Strain them squeeze the water out and they will be amazing! In the North we like a little bit more spice so I add a little bit of allspice and a little bit of nutmeg as well.
First time to meet a such a traditional spoken American family, I often watch American shows but I think those people are mostly from new York or California. This accent sounds southern and it's nice to see tradition still alive. I'm from South Africa and I love your cooking!
Hail Mary and Joseph, Tammy you are the ultimate Queen of Cakes; that looks unbelievable. I wish I could make things like this, I just know i could never decorate it as nice as you do. You are super talented - your momma would be proud ❤love and blessings from England.
I love a homemade carrot cake and I make mine just like you do. I actually use golden raisins. They are so good with cream cheese icing. Thank you for reminding me I need to bake one of these. ❤
I loved watching this! I'm fascinated by your mixer. I tend to make mine very plain with no nuts, pineapple, dates or raisins. When I add these ingredients, I lose people with each addition. My secret to a good carrot cake is a little hand-grated fresh nutmeg. P.S. Ina Garten says grate carrots by hand for a fluffier cake. Organic carrots tend to be more flavorful.
Tammy, I made this cake and took it to a church function last week. It was a big hit because it was the first dessert to go! It’s now my favorite cake. Thank you❤
Tammy, just like with pie cut two pieces before you remove one. For some reason the first piece of thin come out intact with no trouble at all. My grandmother taught me that I have been making pie and cake for 55 years. Love your channel I never get tired of it and I always learn something new.
Tammy thank you for telling us to use same kind of measuring scoops ( and I do have the measuring scoops thanks for Mother’s Day gifts that I ordered)you explain everything. You’re the BEST ❤❤
You did an outstanding job with that cake. The way you applied the icing and the decorations was excellent. I can see you learned from a professional. It's a labor intensive cake with the grating of the carrots and coating the raisins with flour and the chopping of the nuts but if you have the time, I'm sure it makes a big difference in the way it all turns out. The video was very enjoyable to watch.
Hello, I made your cake yesterday. I had to make a couple of substitutions. I didn't have cookling oil , so I used MTC oil. I didn't have any crushed pineapple, so I added some dries cranberry. It is very good. I think the MTC oil made it a little more dense, and the bottom and edges were a little crunchy. But everyone seemed to like the crunchy. I also added a little bit of Kitklands' orange liqueur in both the batter and frosting. Thanks.
Oh my goodness! That cake is a work of art!! I love carrot cake, but I’ve never attempted to make one. I’m thinking I probably never will despite seeing how easy you make it look, but then I remember I never thought I’d make homemade biscuits and after watching you make only a one cup of flour version, I now make them all the time. So, you never know!😜
My moms favorite cake is carrot cake, we buy it every year for her birthday but I am going to make an attempt this year and make it myself following your recipe 😋
Sorry I couldn’t ever use raisins! I generally switch to stewed apples for replacement of raisins. Wow I’ve never seen a mixer like yours it is ver interesting. TY for sharing your recipe
Wow I thought i was the only person who still prefer to use a hand grater. The hand grated carrots gives it a much better texture and I also use chop walnuts and finely shredded coconut.
👍This is the recipe that my aunt used, except that she added the baking powder, soda (? ) and salt to the flour instead of self rising flour. She made one on most holidays. It was one of my favorite cakes, and she gave me the recipe when I was a teenager. Loved it.
When I was a kid.....way back in the 50's, my Mom would make me carrot cakes....my favorite cake! We always had a deal....she would make the cake, but I had to pull the carrots from the garden, peel and grate them. Sort of the same deal in the fall.....I'd pick and peel the apples and she would make the apple pies. I always considered those "deals" more than fair!
OMG, I love cake and carrot cake (next to pound cake) is my favorite! Actually, my favorite iced cake is carrot cake. Pound cake or lemon loaf are my 1 2 3 in no particular order for me. Thank you Tammy and Chris! God bless!
I just found your channel and you had me at self rising flour. I am southern girl from a family of bakers and I never heard of ap flour until leaving my Southern state. I am subscribed and now I am watching your videos instead of folding laundry.
I absolutely love Carrot Cake. Initially the concept of carrots in a cake was not appealing but once I got over it, I was loving my Carrot Cake. My recipe came from my Aunt who was a fantastic farm cook. Yummy.
Wow wow Tammy !! That's just Beautiful cake 🍰, my Dan loves carrot cake so much I did try to makeing one didn't work for me ❤️ oh well I do try if it doesn't work forget it , chope you and Chris and the girls have a great Easter, God bless you all , ❤❤❤ 8:45
Since my family will not eat raisins we use dried apricots. We always used raisins when I was a child. The apricots are actually good. Love your program for great recipes. Where did you purchase the measuring products? Time for new ones here. Have a great day.
Carrott cake is my favorite cake. Even more than chocolate cake. My wife makes me a carrot cake out of the Lion House Cookbook every year on my birthday. It looks to be pretty similar to your recipe. Your cake looks delicious and almost too beautiful to cut. Thank you for sharing this recipe.
Oh my goodness!!! What a beautiful cake. Tammy, you sure got what it takes..... A trick I learned to keep fruit from sinking is to fold it into your batter. Don't let the mixer do it because it incorporates the flour in! The less folds it takes, the better. Hope this helps. ❤
I’ve made this cake several times now and we love it. The only change I made was to leave out the raisins because we don’t care for them. It’s a very good cake and comes together easily.
Oh that is the most beautiful carrot cake I have ever seen and you can SEE the moist yuminess. I gotta say I Love your house. That stove is awesome , love the sink the cabinets. I could cook on there alll dang day !
Try soaking your raisins. I soak mine and they taste delicious.. During the Holidays, I soak my raisins in brandy, wine, or whatever alcohol flavor compliments my recipe at the time🤫. Aside from that, i try to soak them for at least àn hour in mildly warm water until the raisins expand. Non-raisin eaters wont notice.... Also, the last.time I made Carrot Cake, I put just a sprinkle of sweetened coconut in the batter and what a yum it was. Lastly, I use both vanilla and almond extract. Thanknyou for sharing your recipe with us. I will definitely keep and n use it as my foundation mix. Be blessed!❤
This looks so beautiful, decadent, and delicious. For the raisins, I would fold them in with a spatula so that the flour remains attached to the fruit. Great Holy Week dessert! 😋🙏🏻
Thank you Thank you TY! I so glad you make a carrot cake...I'm going to visit my friend for his 65th and want to make one for him so I'll follow you recipe step by step. 🌻
Beautiful.. I have to say to everyone the white Lilly flour is such a good fluffy light flour I am lucky to be able to get it live in northern KY near Cincinnati.I did see a advertisement on my Facebook that Sams was going to start carrying it in the 10 lb bags.. I’m hoping that was good information…
Looks wonderful. Thank you for your guided video. Regarding cutting. I did hear once (believe it or not it was a remark made by Queen Elizabeth II many years ago at a ceremonial cake cutting event) that the first slice is easier to remove when you cut as though you were cutting two slices and then the first slice of cake slides out. I guess she would know, she did cut alot of cakes, bless her.
I love a good, moist carrot cake! I have never made one with pineapples in it. I like the idea of a little Ginger also. This cake looks fabulous! Thank you for sharing. Btw I really like your white lace top.♡︎
Tammy I watched carefully as you made your carrot cake. I love most of all your added comments. That is tips you never heard. Your mama taught you well. Love you. Florence, AL
I do mine a little different and won awards with it. I use chopped walnuts and 2 cups of sweetened coconut. Makes it awesome.
I wouldn't want coconut in mine, Carrots yes! But I'm glad you like it with coconut.
I’d add some crushed pineapple
What’s your recipe?

I’m gonna bake one for Easter, a Pecan Pie and a Lemon Pound Cake. We love sweets at my house❤
Be safe I’m in WI and we’ve been getting your weather patterns later in the week 14 inches of snow this past Saturday..
Thank you ❤

Wonder if you can soak them in hot vanilla water. Would intensify the flavor I think. How long do you let them soak?
I like to soak my raisins too! They have a wonderfully light texture and the flavor is yummy. It doesn't have that "raisin-y" taste.
@@tracylynnfarley6748 hello , I like to soak raisin in wine overnight before I make fruit cake , taste good
THIS IS MY GO TO RECIPE EVERYTIME THIS TASTE AMAZING!!

I always use golden raisins too but for this video I used half golden and half regular just so that you could see the raisins more for the video
I use golden too
What brand of mixer asr you using?? I have never seen one like it. I really like the looks and mixing of it. Thank you.

I use black walnuts and dark raisins, my grandson wants for birthdays,holidays, any day!
My mom used to bake, freeze and ship me giant cakes across country: 7up, German chocolate or carrot cake .
I've made this cake four times already. My family loves it!
Glad you liked it!!

This carrot cake looks beautiful, and delicious!
Beautiful… Simply beautiful❤
As always, baking perfection! Tammy is the Queen of Cakes!
Love your accent! I also love that your husband does the video taping. Such a wholesome family cooking channel 💝🖖
I made this for my mother's 87th Birthday yesterday and it was the most delicious cake! Thank you!!!
Wonderful!
This has nothing at all to do with cake. It’s just that your hair is absolutely beautiful. I love the color and it’s so shiny and clean looking.
That cake is a thing of beauty.

Tammy, I just love watching you cook. Thank you for your show.
That looks delicious! Lots of great tips such as freezing cakes before slicing and using a little evaporated milk in the icing!
Your cakes are always beautiful and sound like they are really delicious, too. I'll bet your Bible study group loves to come to your house!
This cake looks amazing. Carrot Cake is my absolute favorite.

Your channel popped up today. A coworker from the 70’s made a carrot cake for the office and the recipe looks like the recipe you use.
I use my hand shredder cause that’s what Grammy used and passed onto me. Same with her spaghetti pot ❤❤❤
You seem like a beautiful person. Lovely cake..I will definitely try it. God bless you.
