Brazilian Carrot Cake "Bolo de Cenoura"

Bolo de Cenoura

 Cake:
2 cups all purpose flour (wheat flower)
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 cup oil
1 cup grated carrot
2 cups sugar
4 eggs

Cocolate syrup:
10 tablespoons sugar
6 tablespoons powder chocolate
2 tablespoons milk
2 tablespoons butter

Prepare the cake:
Place eggs, oil, carrots and sugar in a blender and beat well.
Add this mixture to the flour and baking powder.
Mix until the batter is a homogenous mass.
Pour batter into a baking pan covered with baking sheet or greased with butter.
Preheat the oven to 180 C (350 F) and bake for 40 minutes. Try with a toothpick to see if it is done.

Prepare the syrup:
In a saucepan, place sugar, powdered chocolate, milk and butter.
Cook the mixture, stirring continuously for about 10 minutes on medium heat. The topping is ready when it is the texture of chocolate syrup.

Cover the cake with the syrup and cool off. This time I didn´t cover the whole cake since I wanted to see the yellow carrot cake and I made it for a night snack. However for a more festive occation it could be glazed more beautifully:=).
