During the week, I make sandwiches<\/strong> at work. During the weekend, I come home and want to bake cake. Fortunately, those around me are frequently willing to indulge me and eat cake.<\/p>\n

just eat it – also good for breakfast!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Since it’s harvest<\/strong> season, and my sister requested a pinnable recipe for my version of carrot cake, that is how I most recently destroyed the kitchen. My first adventure with this recipe was scaling it up to make three large sheet cakes for a wedding reception and the penciled in weights still clutter up the margins of the cookbook, although I can’t imagine the next time I’ll need to create carrot cake in that quantity. Still, I was inspired to scale up just enough to create three 9×9 squares to layer. Impatience defeated the first layer as I was un-panning it while still warm, and it broke in half. This still left me with enough cake to throw together into a less impressive, but equally delicious two-layer cake held together by slathers of cream cheese frosting.<\/p>\n

Fortunately for the fit<\/strong> of our jeans, we were heading for a pinochle night and tacos at a friend’s house, so we packed the cake up and took it along as our contribution to the meal. Some got left in the freezer for them and the remnants were brought home at midnight along with the exhausted card players. There are still a few corners of the moist cake tucked into our icebox, that I just need to make a smear of cream cheese frosting for. But you don’t need to come over and raid our cake scraps, because I’ll include the recipe for you.<\/p>\n
