Not too long ago, my mother was attending a going away party & wanted to bring something special for her friend that was traveling. We decided on a chocolate cake with chocolate cream cheese icing, and saw the cutest way to make an ordinary cake extraordinary! {here}
Oh, and the kids loved it too!!
My mom has been asking me all week to make the “best carrot cake ever” that she discovered in Southern Living {here}. I always preferred Banana Nut Cake over carrot, so attempting this cake was a nice change-up. I’d have to say, it was a pleasant surprise! The pecans and crushed pineapple added a nice touch to the moist cake. They say that pictures are worth 1000 words, so I hope my excessive photos help you recreate this spiced classic.
