Carrot cake cheese cake


I have lately had such an intense sweet tooth, I go to sleep and wake up thinking about every cake, cookie and pie you could imagine which if you follow me on instagram has been pretty clear. So when my husband picked me up a slice of carrot cake cheese cake in an effort to satisfy my craving, it only created a monster. The very next day I decided that one slice wasn't enough.
