Ohhh, this is good. In place of the butter/oil mixture I used a cup of buttermilk and half a cup of browned butter. My goodness! Oh, my goodness, it was delicious. I had never tried to make a carrot cake before, but that's what my dad picked for his birthday this year, so I raced over to the KA website to find out how to make one. Voila! I loved being able to control the add ins and make it the way we liked it (chopped up raisins, toasted almonds, etc.). And everyone LOVED the frosting. I used vanilla bean paste and a scant 1/4 t. of Fiori di Sicilia, and everyone went nuts over the "dreamsicle" flavor. Even my sister, a non-fan of frosting, scraped the last of it off and ate it when she was too full to finish her cake. Once again, KA (and its wonderful baking community with all their suggestions and experience) saved the day. Thanks so much. -Erin
