Claire Saffitz Makes Carrot and Pecan Cake | Dessert Person

Right? I never really understood the appeal of seeing Claire super stressed out every episode

[@iliatchaplinski]

I kinda miss Gourmet Makes, tho. I'd love to see her do it again. Maybe on her own channel, she can take her time and be less stressed, while still making more-delicious homemade snack foods.

[@ninalou4629]

Same. One of the reasons I started to dislike gourmet makes is because she didnt look happy doing it/was super stressed especially as time went by and essentially would skip episodes every now and then but these videos I love! Shouldve made her own channel long ago!

Claire!!! This recipe is incredible. I’ve been craving carrot cake and as a fan of yours, I’ve had this recipe stored. Well, I finally had a reason to bake a cake and I walked away feeling so good as everyone raved about the best carrot cake they had ever had. This coming from generations older than me and people who didn’t think they liked carrot cake. Biggest compliments were about the moistness of the cake and flavor of the frosting.

[@patworfka143]

Like a fridge tour? We NEEEEEED a fridge tour. Especially seeing Claire's reactions of shock, concern, trepidation as she opens the fridge! I would also love a whole kitchen tour if I am being honest.

I made this cake for my mom’s 70th birthday this past weekend and it was SO DELICIOUS! She had requested a carrot cake and this one seemed like a good choice. Regarding the brown butter, I actually put it in the fridge to solidify and then let it come to room temperature again before making the frosting: it worked perfectly without having to risk the frosting being too runny. Anyway, a really good recipe and it tasted amazing! My mom loved it!
