キャロットケーキトレイケーキ

The tray format is genuinely handy—I slid it straight into a cooler for a picnic and the single layer meant zero messy stacking. The cake itself stayed moist while the double cream cheese icing on top gave it that perfect tangy-sweet balance, and it sliced cleanly into neat little rectangles.

I brought this to a potluck and it held up perfectly in the pan, no sliding around. The cream cheese icing is generous but not too sweet, which balances the spiced cake nicely.

The cream cheese icing is thick and perfectly tangy, not too sweet at all. My family finished the whole tray in one sitting, and it held together nicely on the drive over.
