I found this recipe in my Mom’s Recipe Box. I am sure she clipped it out because this recipe does not contain raisins or pineapple or coconut in the cake. It is to be made as a three layer cake, so there is lots of icing per bite — This would be important if I were serving to my husband 😉

Step by step method

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

  • Step 2

    Grease and flour three 9" cake pans.

  • Step 3

    Combine first 7 ingredients (carrots, flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon); stir in eggs, oil, and vanilla.

  • Step 4

    Spoon batter into the 3 prepared pans; bake for 30 minutes or until cakes test done.

  • Step 5

    Spread with Cream Cheese Frosting (recipe follows) between layers while still warm.

  • Cream Cheese Frosting

    Cream together powdered sugar, cream cheese, butter and vanilla until well blended; sir in pecans. This will be enough icing to frost the tops of three 9" layer cakes.
