YUMMY!!!!!! This is so simple sounding. Saved, thanx


This sounds allot like a recipe I've been looking for, thank you so much for posting this recipe!!


Carrot cake is a favorite of my husband's, and I've never tried this version that adds the pineapple - I will have to give it a go...the pineapple would really add to the moistness and flavor. I also never tried your frosting idea, so I'm looking forward something new and different. Thanks!
