Amazing Carrot Cake Recipe

[@ejquezad]

This year I decided to do something different for my wife's birthday. With absolutely ZERO experience baking, I decided that I was going to bake a cake, my first experience, as a way to show her that I wanted to do something special for her. It came out surprisingly delicious. She loved it. We all loved it. I am actually excited now to try other recipes. Your instructions are easy to follow. I THANK YOU so much for this.

[@PreppyKitchen]

So happy you enjoyed!

The video uses more spices, sour cream and an extra egg that was never mentioned in the written one. The order also slightly differs between the two.

Just an FYI the written recipe at the link is very different to the one in the video, just in case anyone makes the mistake of trying to follow both like I have 😅

I just followed the recipe on the website and turned into a mess! The amount of sugar is double to the video! 😢

Didn't think I would like carrot cake but this looks to good to be true, Mmm tasty ...😋😋

That does look amazing and I'm sure it's absolutely delicious. However, I have a 1986 Blue Ribbon recipe that does involve pineapple and it is equally delicious, I'm sure. Thanks for sharing. xo
