Carrot Smith Island Cake

Imagine a carrot cake with 11 layers… can you see it? Now, stop imagining it and start experiencing it for yourself! The Southern twist on the official state cake of Maryland was inspired by a Hungarian traditional Dobosh Torte, with delicious cream cheese icing spread betwixt alternating thin and delicate layers of moist carrot cake!
