It’s perfectly moist, the spices are a burst of flavor and it’s a classic cake recipe with no crazy add-ins. This is My Favorite Carrot Cake Recipe with Cream Cheese Frosting.
I only had carrot cake for the first time a few years ago. My good friend, Melissa Brandley was in town for the Sundance Film Festival and we went out to dinner for a good ol’ catch up on all things in life. We laughed until our sides hurt, cried together right there in the restaurant and had the most delicious carrot cake. That carrot cake inspired me to create this recipe, my Favorite Carrot Cake.
I’m not a fan of carrot cakes that are full of all sorts of ingredients like orange peel, candied ginger, walnuts, pecans, and raisins. At that point it gets too busy and almost doesn’t even seem like a cake anymore. I want fresh, moist and flavorful and I want it to taste like a carrot cake.
