Chef's Notes

Depending on how big or small you want these bars, you may get more or less than serving suggestion. I cut them rather big for the pictures but normally would cut them into smaller pieces so I would end up with about 30 servings. 
 
Garnish with chopped walnuts. I found the cute carrot shapes at Target. They are completely not necessary but if you see them at the store, grab them, cause they look so cute on the bars. 
 
Make sure to let the bars cool completely before frosting. I always make the bars the night before I need them. Once cooled, I cover the sheet pan with plastic wrap and let it sit on the counter overnight. I frost them the next day.

Carrot cake is my Mum’s favorite dessert. I made these for a Mother’s Day surprise and I have to say that these aren’t just good, these are AMAZING! Super easy recipe to follow and delicious. I added more sour cream and whipping cream to my frosting but this is a winner! Thank you for sharing. These made her so happy.
