Carrot Cake
Carrot Cake (Bolo de Cenoura in Portuguese), cake which consists of grated carrot mixed with batter. The carrot softens in the cooking process, and the cake usually has a soft, dense texture. The carrots themselves enhance the flavor, texture and appearance of the cake.

oi daniel, acabei de fazer este bolo que poderia ter ficado delicioso se nao fosse a sugestao do 'olive oil'.
atençao para quem fizer o bolo: use qualquer oleo de sabor neutro!!!!
o meu bolo ficou com gosto de azeite e nem com cobertura de chocolate deu pra disfarçar.
uma pena!
mas tirando isso, a receita e' boa!
Obrigado pela dica, Claudia!
Eu mudei a receita, tirei o azeite por um oleo comum de cozinha...
Ainda preciso decidir qual óleo seria melhor, de girassol, de soja, etc..
Abraços!
