Carrot Cake
Recipe: #4088
January 15, 2012
"This was my mother's favorite carrot cake because it does not have pineapples in it. I always made it for her on her birthday. It is a nice moist cake. If baking in dark colored pans, or a 9x13x2 pan, baking time will be different."
Original is 12 servings
