An unusual carrot cake!
Som problems with the recipe - go by the volume and not the estimated number of pounds of carrots. For me, the 1 lb of grated carrots gave me a full cup more carrot than the 2 1/2 cups called for in the recipe.

Moisture here comes from the vegetables and 1C mayonaise (no oil). The flavor was amped up by 1/4 grated fresh ginger and hazelnuts. I toasted the hazelnuts for a bit more flavor.

The frosting was also unusual. It was a cream cheese frosting that used molasses for flavoring. Wow - good by the finger and on the cake.
