Nia Lee's 'Pay It No Mind' Carrot Cake
Briefly

"When I think of warmth and creativity and softness, I think of Marsha, and that's also the energy I want to infuse into this cake," Lee said.
Lee's version adds browned butter and spices such as mace and nutmeg, and it doubles the amount of vanilla extract to create a lighter cake that she likens to a warm and comforting hug.
This carrot cake recipe was shared with culinary artist Nia Lee by her mother, who originally took it from Patti LaBelle's 'LaBelle Cuisine.'
