ULTIMATE CARROT CAKE
The most moist and succulently rich Carrot Cake I've ever eaten. It is highly requested by my family and friends and much talked about in between occassions when I bake it. It is a tad labor intensive and has 3 parts, the cake, the buttermilk glaze and the cream cheese frosting But I promise you it is entirely worth the effort this cake takes. The recipe originally was published in the October 1997 Southern Living Magazine, but can also be found on their website. This is truly a 5 star recipe. Baking is a science and being precise is key with a perfect cake. I always recommend spooning the flour into the measuring cup and leveling off, rather than scooping out the flour and leveling. Additional use a best quality vanilla. My favorite is Vanilla Bean Crush by Sonoma Syrup Co. (Can be found at King Arthur Flour on the web, or occassionally at Marshall's.) This recipe has a lot of liquid in it and is a wet batter, but never fear it will bake up with perfection ;)

CARROT CAKE SUPREME WITH BUTTERMILK GLAZE AND CREAM CHEESE FROST
I found this recipe in a Southern Living cookbook and it is the BEST!!! I am a custom cake baker and decorator and am always hunting for great cake recipes. I know it looks intimidating, as the recipe has 3 parts: Cake, Glaze and Frosting...that's why there's soo many ingredients listed. Every time I make this cake people literally go crazy...I've even had a marriage proposal over this one! Watch out people...you might just get yourself hitched.
