This carrot cake recipe is very clever. It's a lot like a blondie recipe but with finely shredded carrots. The moistness of the cake lends to grating the carrots with a fine grater. It's delicious! It can easily be served in a 9x13 pan or layered into 2-3 layers. You won't find a simpler carrot cake recipe anywhere. It's a great recipe that will definitely impress.
Note: If you layer the cake, make sure to double the icing recipe (or triple if you like a lot of icing).
