Carrot Cake Heaven – A Neighbor’s Recipe Worth Sharing

I’ve always loved carrot cake—maybe more than most people. I thought I was a bit of an oddball until my neighbor raved about a recipe from Food & Wine and insisted I try it.

I’m so glad I did.

I baked it over the weekend and it was everything I love about carrot cake and more. I swapped in walnuts for the pecans (personal preference), and they worked perfectly.

The cake turned out super moist and full of flavor, with just the right amount of spice. And the cream cheese filling? To die for! Rich, smooth, and the perfect match for the cake’s warmth. It didn’t last long—everyone wanted seconds.

Whether you're a carrot cake lover or just curious, this recipe is a must-try, especially for Easter!
