CARROT CAKE Recipe | Guam Food | Guam Recipes

This Guam Chamorro carrot cake recipe was given to my Nina, Auntie Daling, by her mom on Guam. It's super moist, super flavorful and super yummy due to the pineapple, cinnamon, raisins, walnuts, and of course, carrots. The carrot cake frosting recipe is made of real Philadelphia cream cheese and Cool Whip, making it light and fluffy. During our CHamoru Thanksgiving at Nina and Nino's house, we always have delicious Guam food including this scrumptious CHamoru carrot cake recipe. It makes for a perfect holiday dessert, or even a great dish to bring to a barbeque.

Thank you for SUBSCRIBING https://bit.ly/2No9eVA to my Chamorro/CHamoru food channel where I share all things Guam 671 Chamorro cooking recipes, Guam 671 food, and more yummy dishes! Guam is an island of the Mariana Island archipelago that includes the Mariana islands of Rota, Saipan, Tinian, and Pagan. The CHamorus of the Marianas share many wonderful CHamoru cuisine foods, yet there are also unique island food differences due to their colonial standings at the end of the Spanish-American war – divided between the United States, Germany, and Japan.
