A carrot cake recipe that has taken social media by storm is the perfect thing to cook when you don't have a lot of baking items in the cupboard.
Many baking recipes require a long list of ingredients and very complex processes to come out with a perfect product, reports the Express. However, swapping eggs and butter for one ingredient along can make this baking process almost too simple.
One carrot cake recipe that has been a popular hit on social media uses condensed milk to reduce the cake mixture down to just four ingredients.
Initially shared on budgeting Facebook page, this recipe is "quick and easy" and "a good way to use up carrots in the fridge" - according to one person at the Practical Parenting Facebook page.
The sweet milk is a perfect egg substitute and also reduces the sugar needed to balance the sponge. It is cheaper to make than most carrot cakes and leaves less room for error.
For the cream cheese frosting:
Stir everything together to make a cake batter, then stir in the nuts or sultanas if using.
Stir through this mixture then pour into the loaf tin. Bake for 45 minutes until risen.
After it is baked, take the tin out of the oven and let the cake cool down.
With an electric mixer, whip the cream cheese until it's smooth, then add the softened butter and beat for 30 seconds to a minute until it's well mixed.
Add lemon juice and icing sugar and keep mixing until everything is well combined. Once the cake has completely cooled, spread the frosting on top.

Jon Burlingame Science fiction and fantasy have inspired dozens of great television scores through the years, from “Battlestar Galactica” to “Game of Thrones.” Three more streaming series continued that tradition this season: “Silo,” “Fallout” and “3 Body Problem.” Atli Örvarsson’s music for “Silo,” the Apple TV+ dystopian drama set in a bleak future where everyone lives in underground silos, was initially inspired by the setting. “It’s a mechanized world,” he says.

Michael Schneider Variety Editor at Large That’s why I wasn’t happy in the late 1990s when hourlong shows like “Ally McBeal” and “Desperate Housewives” entered (and won, in some cases) the Emmy comedy race. Hourlong dramedies are not comedies! No one ever called “All in the Family” — which had some deep, dark moments — a drama, and yet there were a couple of laughs in “Desperate Housewives” (which opened with a death!) and suddenly it’s a comedy? Sadly, I lost this battle years ago. And as we know, the comedy race is really now a dramedy race.
Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic When people think of country superstar Miranda Lambert, one of the things that first comes to mind is pyro — not because she has that huge a penchant for setting things off on stage (though it happens), but because of lyrical connotations going back to her first platinum single, “Kerosene.” When it comes to her own career, though, things have consistently gone too well to ever need to go into burn-it-all-down mode. As she’s subtle changed approach from album to album and single to single, Lambert has been all about controlled burns.

Ellise Shafer Gary Oldman took the opportunity to clarify his comments about his acting in the “Harry Potter” franchise during the Cannes press conference for his new film, “Parthenope,” on Wednesday. When asked about a prior comment in which he disses his performance as Sirius Black as “mediocre,” Oldman said he didn’t mean to “disparage anyone out there who are fans of ‘Harry Potter’ and the films and the character who I think is much beloved.” “What I meant by that is, as any artist or any actor or painter, you are always hypercritical of your own work,” he continued. “If you’re not, and you’re satisfied with what you’re doing, that would be death to me.

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic Shocking and resonant, disarmingly grotesque and weirdly fun, “The Substance” is a feminist body-horror film that should be shown in movie theaters all over the land. By that, I don’t mean that it’s some elegant exercise in egghead darkness like the films of David Cronenberg, or a patchy postmodern punk curio like “Titane.” Coralie Fargeat, the writer-director of “The Substance,” has a voice that’s italicized, in-your-face, garishly accessible and thrillingly extreme.
