Notes

  • For a richer flavor, consider adding raisins or coconut to the carrot cake layer.
  • Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature for the best results, especially the cream cheese.
  • This dessert can be made a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
