"This is a smooth, velvety cake that is the perfect marriage of rich, spicy carrots and sweet cream cheese. My mother found this recipe many years ago and we still eat it at important birthdays and informal family gatherings. I have baked it on a sheet cake pan for bars and also in two 9 inch round pans for layer cake."
