Sounds wonderful!


Okey dokey...one of my absolute favorites!! I added this to some groups for you.


Oh my - I love carrot cake!! This deserves a 25 fork rating but they'll only show 5 of them. But be assured that pressed the fifth fork five times. Heh. Thanks for sharing!


Now how did this recipe slip by me? I believe you submitted it just after I had done some research to make some carrot cake muffins. Nevertheless, this is a wonderful recipe!

Thank you :-)
