Carrot Cake Bars The thing that sets these carrot cake bars apart from the rest is the cream cheese frosting swirl INSIDE the bars! So, you still get the cream cheese frosting with the carrot cake, but also leave room for the crumble topping! The delicious bars also have walnuts added to the batter for a little nutty crunch in every bite.Carrot Cake Bars Ingredients There are three important parts to this recipe–the crumble topping, bars, and cheesecake frosting swirl.

Butter: You will use a stick of butter for both the topping and the bars (a total of two sticks), so I chose to use Challenge Butter. Challenge Butter is made the old-fashioned way, churned fresh daily from the freshest milk and cream from happy cows at family-owned dairies since 1911.In fact, Challenge is the only major U.S.dairy product company that controls the whole process when it comes to making its butter, from milking the cows, to transporting milk, to making the butter to packaging and distributing.

Talk about quality control! I also featured Challenge Butter in my Kentucky Butter Crunch Cake and Buttery Bubble Bread.Carrots: You can’t have carrot cake without shredded carrots! You will need 2-3 large carrots for this recipe.Freshly shredded carrots are best;
