This carrot cake is, to me, perfect: chewy dates instead of raisins, and toasted nuts ON TOP instead of in, absolutely zero pineapple in sight, and you don’t need a mixer. It’s sweet but not too sweet (it’s…sweet enough, even), dense but not heavy, and has so many carrots, you might not believe it will taste good (but it truly does). It doesn’t even really need frosting, although I do understand the sentimental attachment—and it makes it look nice, too. It also doesn’t really need to be served cold (it’s perfect at room temperature), but at this point I’m hoping you can just trust me on these things. Refrigerating it does give it a dense, custardy, almost fudge-like texture that feels simultaneously luxurious and healthy, screaming “mid-day snack” or “this could be breakfast.”
