Ingredients
- THE CAKE:
- 3 c grated carrots - box grater, on the large, round hole side (about 12 med. carrots)
- 4 eggs
- 2 c dark brown sugar, packed (like it less sweet? Use 1- 1/2 c)
- 1 c pineapple, crushed, well drained
- 3/4 c canola oil
- 1/2 c applesauce
- 3/4 c chopped pecans or walnuts
- 1 tbs pure vanilla extract
- 2 c all-purpose flour (message me for a perfect gluten-free flour blend)
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
- 1 Tbs ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp grated nutmeg
- THE FROSTING:
- 8oz cream cheese
- 3-1/2 c confectioners sugar
- 1/2 c sweet butter, softened
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 c chopped pecans or walnuts
- NOTE: Since I am usually knee-deep in our excellent pure Michigan maple syrup, I am adding 1/4 c. to my frosting this time, and omitting the vanilla
