This carrot cake recipe is from a good friend of mine who I met when we lived in Georgia. I loved it so much I asked her to make it for my first son’s baby shower! It makes perfect cupcakes or a fabulous sheet cake.
Layering it into a cupcake jar that my little guys can hold onto is such an adorable new way to present this classic recipe!
