CARROT CAKE À LA BRIGIT

• Beat 260 gms of sugar and 6 egg yolks, creamy. Add 300 gms of grated carrot and mix this up. 
• Add 150 gms of ground almonds, 40gms of wholemeal flour, 1/2 tbsp cinnamon and some grated lemon peel and press in the juice of 1/2 the lemon in it. Mix.
• Beat those 6 egg whites stiff, add carefully to the mixture above, with another 150 gms of ground almonds.
• Add this to a round cake form with baking paper, Bake for an hour at about 170°.
• Allow to cool after baking and decorate with icing sugar, or a chocolate coat and some nice supermarket carrot marzipan. I love it plain.
• This cake is so easy to make, it stays moist and is almost very healthy. Brigit is a good friend of mine and a baking maestro and it makes me happy to be sharing one of her recipes with you.
• Brigit ? when's the next one coming?
