A cousin gave me this recipe. It's a wonderful potluck pleaser with its "surprise" cream cheese center. My husband and our two young children love it, too! It's a great way to use up the overabundance of carrots from my garden.

This cake was delicious. I made it for a friend's birthday and everyone was amazed by how moist it was. (The surprise filling in my cake was only a thin strip, unlike the large circle in the picture, but it was still delicious.)

The whole cake was gone the first night I made it - everyone came back for seconds or thirds!

AWESOME! I've made it several times and whenever I bring it to a friend's house, they say "this is the best carrot cake I've ever had." Many carrot cakes taste a lot like a spice cake, but this one doesn't. It's incredibly moist and flavorful!
