Birthdays are the best.
Cake is the best.
It's not hard to see why these two go together so well.
Seeing as I love baking, and I also love birthdays.. When my bestie's birthday rolled around, I slyly (or perhaps not so slyly..) sussed out her favourite types of cake.. Her response was Lemon Meringue Pie.. This scared me slightly.
Actually it scared me a lot.
Quite a lot..
So instead! I baked her a Carrot Cake.
Because deep down I know she loves Carrot Cake too.
Or at least she does now..
I used Donna Hay's recipe, it's a very simple recipe if you break it down. I always get flummoxed by recipes with a ton of ingredients and steps. So with this one I took the time to break it down, separate the instructions and re write it out. Substituting the sultana's for walnuts, I was pretty happy with the result! Hopefully my bestie was too!
