My sister in law made this for a family gathering over the Labor Day weekend. She got this out of an old Avon cookbook when she was a teenager. It doesn't have any add ins and I think that is the beauty of it. If you like add ins there are many many other carrot cakes on zaar for you to choose from. Enjoy. Ingredients:
2 cups sugar |
2 cups flour |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
1 teaspoon salt |
3 teaspoons cinnamon |
1 1/2 cups vegetable oil |
4 eggs |
3 cups grated carrots |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1/2 cup melted butter |
8 ounces cream cheese, softened |
16 ounces powdered sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
Directions:
1. Sift together sugar flour, soda, salt and cinnamon.
2. Stir in oil. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add carrots, nuts and vanilla, mixing thoroughly.
3. Pour into a greased 13 x 9 inch cake pan. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. Cool in pan.
4. Combine butter, cream cheese, and vanilla, mixing well. Gradually add powdered sugar, beating until smooth. Spread on cooled cake.
