Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting

![]()
Ever since I watched When A Man Loves A Woman years ago, I’ve been craving for a really good Carrot Cake with cream cheese frosting. I’ve tried some of them, but all tasted either blah or yuck, other times it was what the hell I’m putting in my mouth.
But this Carrot Cake, I LIKE! It’s not good, it is gooooooood. Moist, sweet and cinnamony. The frosting is even better. Easy to mix up and oh-my-God good! Totally my choice for comfort food.
My fairy tale has finally come true

Mbak, wortel parutnya harus disaring dulu supaya airnya gak masuk adonan nggak?

Riana, karena aku ga terlalu suka manis jadi klo chees cream frostingnya aku kurangi jumlah icing sugarnya atau aku ilangin icing sugarnya, akan mempengaruhi kekentalan cream nya ga ya?? thanks
