Hi everyone! I am so honored to be here guest posting at “A Savory Feast.” I fell in love with this blog and all of the delicious recipes when I first got into blogging, so I am incredibly excited to be able to share one of my own recipes with you all!

You know the Five Love Languages? Well, sometimes I feel as if I show my love language through food. Anyone else that way? If I want to do something nice for my husband, I usually cook or bake him something that I would love for him to try. The recipe I’m sharing with you today is one of those that I have been dying to make him for a long time! Carrot Cake Cheesecake! He loves carrot cake, and I love cheesecake (and he likes it, too), so it’s a perfect blending of two amazing desserts. If you like both of these things, this is the go-to dessert for you!

My favorite part about this dessert is that it’s not toooo sweet. The cake consistency blended with the cheesecake balances out some of the sweetest, and I absolutely love the texture it has from the grated carrots, walnuts, coconut, and pineapple!
