Rum Raisin and Carrot Sticky Rolls

Easter is two weeks away and I can’t wait to eat desserts, desserts, desserts! I’ll probably wolf down chocolate eggs, marshmallow bunnies, and the all-time favorite carrot cake. This year I wanted to try something a little different. I love carrot cake (minus the cream cheese frosting), but serving a dessert with a kreative twist will make this Easter a little special.

This Rum Raisin and Carrot Sticky Rolls recipe is perfect if you want to serve something a little less traditional for Easter to an adult crowd! If this is being served to all ages, then rum extract can easily substitute for the actual rum. Enjoy!
