Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch round cake pans with butter or cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine finely grated carrots, fresh cranberries, and sugar. Add eggs and melted butter, then mix until well blended.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and spices until evenly distributed.
- Carefully fold dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined, ensuring a moist batter.
- Divide batter evenly between the prepared pans and bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn them out onto wire racks to cool completely.
- Once cool, layer one cake on a platter, spread cream cheese frosting on top, place the second layer and frost the top and sides.
- Slice and serve at room temperature for a delightful dessert.

Notes
Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature. Avoid overmixing to keep the cake fluffy. Store leftovers covered at room temperature for up to 3 days.
