I did not make any changes to the original cake recipe although I opted to omit the pecans. I think the cake is delicious as is, defiantly the best carrot cake I have ever made and I have made A LOT of them (I make it every year for my hubby's b-day). I did however, make adjustments to the icing. I started out following it exactly but as many others said, it was WAY to sweet. I suggest the following: 1) use only half the butter (1/4 cup). 2) use 12oz cream cheese (the extra bite of the cream cheese cuts the sweetness) 3) use an extra tsp vanilla (2 tsp total)
