Have you ever heard of carrot cake before? We're sure a lot of people who've never had carrot cake before probably think it doesn't really go well with something like a cake, but if you make it brown sugar, you don't actually taste the carrot, and it's not overly sweet. Even if you don't typically like cinnamon, don't worry, it's not overpowering in this recipe. Finally, the cream cheese frosting finishes off the cake perfectly, doubling the overall deliciousness. Try making it yourself!
