Pumpkin Carrot Cake

Now that it's fall, all I want to do is find pumpkin and gingerbread recipes. I have a bookmarked list that goes on for too long. So here's pumpkin carrot cake. I didn't even know there was such a thing, but the internet reveals and confirms all things you weren't aware of. And thanks to Zack, for coming up with such an idea.

The best idea ever. Pumpkin carrot. Quite possibly one of the most delicious flavor combinations. They're both orange. Why wouldn't they go well together? And quite fitting for the Oregon State win versus Washington State this weekend (go Beavers). This cake also has an amazing cream cheese frosting with orange juice and zest. And it's better to frost a cake when it's completely cooled by the way. I know firsthand how excited you can get, but wait. It's for the best.

Wish I had gotten some pictures of the inside of this cake for the blog's sake. But hey, I'm sorry. There was just no time. Once you slice a piece of this, you're just trying to find the fastest way to get some in your mouth. You just want the instant gratification of rich, cinnamon-and-spice-everything-nice flavor. No time for pictures. No time.
