Friends of ours made this cake for us almost a year ago and I have found myself thinking about it ever since. The flavors are so fresh and nostalgic. In truth, I probably would not have picked this recipe out of a cookbook – I always pick chocolate! But what a mistake! I am so…

Caramel Carrot Cake Trifle
Keeping in the #TruHolidaySpirit with TruWhip, I whipped up an absolutely delicious carrot cake trifle. Inspired by an AllRecipes I came across, this recipe is a fun play on a traditional carrot cake.
