Ingredients for Delicious Carrot Cake

• 2 cups sugar
• 1/2 cup cooking oil
• 4 eggs
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups plain flour
• 3 cups re-hydrated well-drained finely grated carrots (about 1-1/2 cups of dehydrated finely-grated carrots)
• 1 cup chopped walnuts
  

Frosting:

• 2 8-oz blocks of cream cheese
• 2 16-oz. boxes 10x confectioner's sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

Here's How to Make This Delicious Carrot Cake:

NOTE: First, set out the cream cheese to let it come to room temperature, chop the nuts, and re-hydrate the carrots.

1. Mix well the first three ingredients: sugar, oil, and eggs.
2. Add in the next four ingredients: cinnamon, baking soda, salt, flour.
3. Stir in by hand the next two ingredients: carrots and walnuts.
4. Bake at 350°F for 45 minutes, in a 9"x 12" baking dish/pan.
5. Mix the frosting ingredients together: cream cheese, confectioner's sugar, vanilla.
6. Frost the cake with half the frosting while it is still warm (let it seep into the cake!) – Frost with remaining frosting when cake has cooled completely – and promptly refrigerate.

... let's see how long this cake hangs around your home!

I made this cake for my mom's birthday and usually my dad turns up his nose at store-bought cakes with their frosting – it's especially the frosting that he doesn't like – so imagine my surprise when he had a slice of THIS cake and said the frosting was delicious!

And he had more than one slice too! Thanks dad!

And mom says, "Thanks for the cake!"
