Carrot Cake Blondie Bars with creamy sweet cream cheese frosting. Everything you love about carrot cake with no decorating struggles!
Carrot Cake Blondie Bars
My favorite cake in the world is carrot cake! Nothing beats it! It’s stuffed will of texture with the carrots, pineapple, nuts and that cinnamon flavor with the cream cheese frosting is heavenly! But what I don’t love about carrot cake is decorating it. These Carrot Cake Blondie Bars are the perfect solution! They’re so moist (sorry if you hate that word) and this recipe makes the perfect amount… a 9×9 pan (which is the perrrrfect brownie pan too)! You can double is for a large casserole dish but I love this small size because I only every really need nine servings!
How to Make Carrot Cake Blondie Bars
The first thing you need to do is grate your carrots! Use a food processor with the grate attachment if you have one or be cool like me and grate the carrots by hand because you haven’t splurged on a food processor yet. Once you’ve combined all the ingredients, dump your batter into a greased pan. I like to line my pans with parchment paper so I can remove them easier once they’ve cooled. Spread the batter flat and bake! Since these are blondies and don’t have any leavening agent in them (baking soda or baking powder) they won’t rise very much. Once the middle of the pan is firm, they’re done baking!
Seriously in love with my 9×9 pan! It comes in handy when I half cake recipes and it’s the perfect pan for brownies, not too thick or thin!
Favorite Easter Desserts
I can’t believe Easter is almost here! If you’re looking for dessert options for the big day, I have a few suggestions. My Cute Garden Carrot Cupcakes are very popular because the chocolate dipped strawberry looks like a carrot! My Easy Bunny Cupcakes are perfect for the kiddos because they look like bunnies using marshmallows as ears! I’m all about those easy desserts that have minimal fuss. You can always stick with a classic carrot dessert too!
Happy Easter everyone!

I like the simple recipes that are great. Looking forward to the next post.
Can this recipe be doubled and baked in a 9×13 pan?
Thank you,
Dannell
The area of a 9×9″ pan is 81 square inches. When you double a recipe like this one, take into consideration the area of the pan. A 9×13″ pan has 117 square inches and will yield a vastly different result.

Easy & delicious!
Tasty bars but, surprised that baking soda or baking powder wasn’t called for in the recipe. Found them quite dense.
They are dense because they are a bar..not cake.
