Carrot Cake for Jory - The Insanely Sexy Potato Show

HA BISKYYYYYYYYYY!!!!! The host of 'Is it a good idea to microwave this?' Jory Caron turned 24 last week. We were talking on twitter and I suggested to dedicate him a cake recipe. He thought it would be awesome so there it is! 

The raisins and walnut are optionnal for this recipe and you may also vary the amount of spice you add to the dry ingredients. I like pungent flavors so I add a lot! If you are lactose intolerant or just dont have sour cream you can replace it with apple sauce or crushed pineapple. White granulated sugar instead of brown sugar wont make much of a difference either. As always, play around with the recipe and make it your own!

For the cream cheese frosting recipe, im reffering you to the best pastry chef on youtube: lovelyladycakes! She makes amazing desserts and turns them into fun and easy to follow video recipes for you to enjoy.
