Best Ever Carrot Cake
"My MIL posted this on Facebook from another site just before my husband's birthday so I figured I kind of had to make it for him. I was a little concerned that it was so easy and had so few ingredients. I have to say it lived up to the name. Hope you enjoy."

I live in Southeastern Washington with my husband and 3 kids (2 girls, 1 boy) and spend most of my time taking care of them. After 8 years as a SAHM I've found a part time job in a law office that I really enjoy. I love Recipezaar and whenever people talk about me being a great cook I make sure to tell them that I'm a good cook that knows a great web site.
