Carrot Cake with Tangy Frosting

April 11, 2020 by Linda Watson Leave a Comment

Carrot cake with frosting

I’ve updated my carrot cake recipe by adding a tangy frosting that tastes like a cream-cheese frosting, but with ingredients that may be easier to get.

Chocolate Pumpkin Snack Cake

Healthy, unfrosted Chocolate Sweet Potato Snack Cake reminds me of the snack cakes we enjoyed as after-school treats when I was growing up. The cakes I remember came from boxed mixes.
