Carrot cake - second attempt - a little better.

The reviews are in.

2.5 large eggs are better than 3.

The instructions on the box call for three eggs and that's what the first try used. It seemed just a little bit too cakey and dry to me.

Reducing the amount of egg made it just a bit richer and moister, but not crazy-rich. Of course, I'm using jumbo sized eggs, which may make a difference. If you're using smaller sized eggs, three is probably going to be fine. whip them thoroughly first in the measuring cup before adding them into the mixing bowl with everything else.
