"This is an adapted carrot cake recipe that I changed to fit my tastes (it doesn't have nuts, coconut, or pineapple, but you can add them if you wish). The cream cheese frosting on this is to die for!"

I was skeptical after the first reviewer but this turned out delicious! I'm not sure what the first person may have missed but the cake was so moist and the frosting was very creamy and sweet. (perhaps they forgot the powdered sugar?) Thanks for the recipe!
