Carrot Cake Recipe
Anyone have a good recipe for a super moist carrot cake? My son is asking for a carrot cake for his birthday. If anyone has had the carrot cake from Blue Moon BBQ this is what I'm aiming for.

Those recipes sound YUMMY!!! I've been wanting to bake a hummingbird cake (very close to a banana cake), so now I can't decide which one to bake...that or carrot. I may try your recipe for a change in my carrot cake too.....I'm saving them right this minute!!!!

Cake
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
4 eggs
1 ¼ cups oil
2-3 cups finely grated carrots
Sift together first 5 ingredients, set aside.
In a large bowl combine eggs, oil & carrots, mix well.
Add dry ingredients to the wet, beat well.
Pour into 2 grease & floured pans. (I just use non-stick cooking spray). Bake at 350 for 45 minutes or until cake test done. Cool in pan for 10 minutes. Remove to wire rack & cool completely.
(side note- I don’t like raisins so when I copied this from my friend I didn’t even write them on the recipe. If you do like, just add a ½ cups. Also I have another recipe that calls for 8oz drained pineapple & ½ cup coconut).
Frosting/Icing
1 - 8 ounce package of cream cheese, softened
1 stick butter (1/2 cup) softened
1 - 1 pound bag powdered sugar
1 cup chopped pecans
In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese & butter until light. Gradually add in powdered sugar beating constantly until smooth. Stir in pecans.
