Moist, spiced, and studded with sweetness, this is the carrot cake that disappears fast. Freshly grated carrots keep every bite tender while warm cinnamon, plump raisins, and toasted pecans bring cozy depth. Baked in a simple sheet pan, it's an approachable dessert for birthdays, holidays, or an afternoon coffee break, and it practically begs for a thick swoop of cream cheese frosting on top.
