Great cake! I made this same cake after finding it on another recipe web site. It is absolutely incredible. The only thing I found different in your recipe is the last step in which you say to "fill with lightly sweetwened cream cheese filling and frost with butter cream frosting". How do you "fill" the cake? Additionally, I left out the raisins, just because I don't care for them and I used an Allspice Cream Cheese frosting. Each time I've made this cake I've had lots of requests for the recipe. It truly is scrumptious.

Hi CC, the filling is the 'frosting' that goes between the layers.....

I made this cake for my mother's birthday and everyone raved that this was the best carrot cake ever. I soaked the raisins in the pineapple juice while the carrots were soaking in the brown sugar and frosted the cake with an orange cream cheese frosting. It was wonderful! The only carrot cake recipe I will ever use.

Phenomenal!!! Just made it tonight - super moist, not too sweet - and everyone loves it! Somehow soaking the carrots in the brown sugar ahead of time made them not so chewy but more soft and yummy. Awesome job!!

Excellent, super moist, carrot cake! I omitted the raisins because I made this for my dad, and he didn't want raisins in it. I also used canola oil, instead of vegetable oil. It turned out GREAT!! I would definitely make this recipe again! Thanks!

This is a wonderful cake! Five stars just isn't enough! I made it last night for a co-workers' birthday today. I baked it in my 12 x 18 x 3 pan for 45 minutes -- it rose nice and high -- cooled it and then frosted it with my cream cheese frosting. It was gone in no time. Everyone asked for the recipe. Thank you for a wonderful recipe that I will definitely make again!

Yum!!!! My family is allergic to nuts, so I substituted a cup of coconut instead. It was fabulous! I am making a big batch today for the bottom layer of a wedding cake. I am sure it will be a hit!

The very best carrot cake I have ever eaten. Thanks so much for this recipe. And you are right get use to shredding carrots. With the left over pineapple I added to the frosting and it was delicious.

Great moist cake. Made it for my mothers 50th Birthday. I soaked the raisins in hot water while i had the carrot and sugar set aside. Also after setting the carrot aside with the sugar i had a lot of liquid in the btw of the bowl that i removed. Would be using this recipe as my main carrot cake recipe from now on!

this has to be the BEST ever carrot cake recipe. Ive come to the conclusion that the 'secret' is leaving the carrots and brown sugar to 'infuse' for the time stated. This deserves 10 stars. SIL is NOT a carrot cake liker, let alone lover, but he now refers to this as the "Good S..t Cake" and sniffs it out if there's one in the cake tin.

super recipe, very moist the way I like carrot cake. I too, screwed up on the "fillin" but will try this next time. I love carrot cake with peanut-butter cream cheese frosting yum yum
