carrot cake

After years of searching for the perfect carrot cake recipe, my mom finally found one from her friend Terri. My mom was in town last weekend and we made this cake for Easter. It was delicious! The cake was spicy and moist and perfectly complimented with cream cheese frosting. We also made some carrot sugar cookies and my daughter suggested we decorate the cake with them. I loved the way it turned out and am dreaming of eating this cake again soon.
