Sheet pan carrot cake

An American-style moist carrot cake is a favorite for many. With this recipe, you can make a whole sheet pan of carrot cake bars with a delicious cream cheese frosting all at once. The almond flakes sprinkled on top should be toasted in a dry pan until golden brown, which enhances their flavor and takes them to a whole new level.
