Method
Start off by making your vanilla caramel frosting first, add all the ingredients for the vanilla caramel frosting to your high speed blender, blend until smooth and creamy. Pour the mixture into a airtight container. Place the container in the freezer. After 45min, stir the vanilla cream frosting to remove any icicles. Place it back in the freezer for another hour. Whilst the frosting is in the freezer you can make your carrot cake.
To your food processor add all the ingredients for the carrot cake and blend until you reach a dough like consistency. Place the carrot mixture into your non-stick cupcake moulds. For ease, I would recommend using a non-stick silicone cupcake mould. Spread the carrot cake mixture out evenly into each cupcake mould. Press down firmly and cover with cling film. Place in the freezer for 1.5 to 2 hours to set. Depending on how thick your cake batter is will depend on the time to set.
Once you are ready to serve, you need to whip up your vanilla frosting and optional place the frosting into your piping bag. You can even dollop the frosting with a spoon onto your carrot cakes, you don’t need to pipe it onto the carrot cakes. Finally for the toppings, sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds with a delicious creamy chocolate Easter egg filled with almond butter.
