Remember when I shared my\u00a0carrot cake bread<\/a>\u00a0and told you that I was really into carrot cake recipes this year?<\/p>\n

Well, you know I couldn\u2019t get through the rest of this spring season without sharing these carrot cake bars, too.<\/p>\n

Bar desserts are great because they\u2019re perfect for feeding a crowd. Sure, recipes like\u00a0pumpkin bars<\/a>,\u00a0banana bars<\/a>, and these carrot cake bars are pretty much sheet cakes with a different name, but they really are easier to cut and serve to a bunch of people.<\/p>\n

Which makes this recipe absolutely perfect for taking to any parties you have coming up.<\/p>\n

Why you\u2019ll love these carrot cake bars<\/h2>\n

These carrot cake bars are SO good.<\/p>\n

The base is a tender, moist carrot cake. The cake is perfectly spiced with cinnamon and just a hint of nutmeg and bursting with grated carrot, crushed pineapple, and chopped nuts.<\/p>\n

The entire thing gets baked in a half sheet pan and finished with cream cheese frosting.<\/p>\n

This recipe has all of the\u00a0classic carrot cake<\/a>\u00a0flavors you love, but without any layering or fancy decorating. The bars are easy to cut as big or as small as you like, so you can easily feed just your family or a crowd with the same recipe.<\/p>\n

Of course this is the perfect Easter dessert, but don\u2019t count it out for Mother\u2019s Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, or just a random Thursday either.<\/p>\n
