MAKE IT SHINE!

I tried a slight turn on the original recipe by adding figs, grated carrot and pecan nuts. I love carrot and pecan cake and thought the two would mix. It turned out lovely especially served with Vanilla Ice Cream. The sauce is nice with added sliced Bananas or Apples, use your imagination!
