This is a great carrot cake, not quit elike my grandma used to make but pretty darn close. I didn't use the icing suggested with this recipe. I opted for Cream Cheese Frosting II (also on this site) because that recipe was more like my grandma's.
The only thing I can suggest for the cake recipe, add some brown sugar. This cake was much lighter than I remember carrot cakes being and I think it is because there is no brown sugar in the recipe. I am making this again for Easter (today), this time I will add 1 cup of brown sugar and see how it turns out.
Great cake, thanks for teh recipe.
