The Perfect Fall Dessert



We here at the Babs blog love pumpkin pie. It's traditional, and if it weren't served after Thanksgiving dinner, a couple of men in our family would protest. However, another wonderful fall dessert idea is carrot cake. Dense and moist, full of classic spices, and topped with a not-too-sweet cream cheese frosting... carrot cake makes a wonderful addition to the fall table. Our favorite recipe comes from the Celebrate! cookbook by Sheila Lukins, but many wonderful carrot cake recipes can be found elsewhere.
