Honey Caramel

  2. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until mixture has reduced by half and is thick enough to coat the back of the spoon. Remove from heat.
  3. Let cool for 5-10 minutes. Drizzle over the top of the warm cake.

Recipe Notes

Note:

  • Be careful once you add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients the cake has to go into the oven straight otherwise the carrot moistness will not allow the cake to bake and the middle will not bake as it should.
