Sweet Southern Carrot Cake Is A Moist And Delightful Treat!

When I was a child I used to think carrot was horrible, however, I came to this conclusion without ever trying it! I just assumed that any cake with a vegetable in it would be bogus. Boy, was I ever wrong! I am so glad I got over my finicky ways and gave into the gloriousness of carrot cake. You are going to absolutely LOVE this recipe.

Check out what my friend Barb had to say about this recipe:

I’ve made plenty of carrot cakes in my day but this recipe literally tops them all. I guess you could say that it “takes the cake”!

I have to agree with Barb on that notion!
