How do I describe this cake? Sweet? Check! Crunchy? Check! Delicious? Double Check!!! Amazing Carrot Bundt cake with Cream Cheese Glaze sweetens the BUNDT CAKE month!!
I love bundt cakes!!! It’s easy to make and it’s usually a crowd-pleaser. My favorite bundt pans are from Nordic Ware. Right now, I am slowly building up my collection of Nordic Ware bundt pans. So far I have about 8 of them, I believe. One of my dream is to go visit the Nordic Ware factory in Minneapolis. Some people dream the moon, I dream bundt cake!!!
This is the beauty that I used to make this cake. So far for this month, I’ve used the Heritage bundt pan for the Banana Bundt Cake with Peanut Butter Frosting and the Rose Bundt pan for this Carrot Cake. I’m always excited to be using my bundt pans. There are so many recipes to try. So many things to bake so little time!!
Now, let’s make this scrumptious Carrot Bundt Cake with Cream Cheese Glaze. In a stand mixer bowl, mix together eggs, oil, white sugar and vanilla.
