• 150 g butter
• 3 eggs
• 200 g sugar
• 120 g all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp vanilla sugar
• 2 tsp cinnamon
• 100 g grated carrot
  
  Cream Cheese Frosting
• 75 g room temperature butter
• 90 g powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla sugar
• 100 g plain cream cheese
  Beat together the butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla sugar. Finally, add the cream cheese and beat until smooth.

1. Melt the butter and let it cool slightly. Mix together the eggs and sugar, then add the flour, vanilla sugar, cinnamon, and carrots, and finally stir in the melted butter.
2. Pour the batter into a 19 cm springform lined with baking paper.
3. Bake in the middle of the oven at 175 degrees for about 20-25 minutes.
4. Let it cool first on the counter and then in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
5. Transfer the cake to a plate, spread the cream cheese frosting over it, and sprinkle a little cinnamon on top.

Allow the cake to set a bit after the cream cheese frosting is spread on, making it even easier to slice. Serve in small pieces alongside a cup of coffee or tea. This sticky carrot cake keeps well in the refrigerator and tastes even better the next day.
