This homemade carrot cake is bursting with flavor and moisture!

My husband is a "die for carrot cake" kind of guy and will travel miles to a well-made moist carrot cake.

Trying to find a real carrot cake recipe is not as easy as you would think. Add or omit mix-ins to suit your preference, but this cake has pineapple and pecans which give it ample flavor. Yes "ever" should be in all caps; as this is the best carrot cake EVER! It is three layers of delectable cake, chocked full of carrots, and soaked in a warm buttermilk glaze.

But one of my favorite things about this cake is (in my opinion) the best cream cheese frosting on the planet.
