Best Carrot Cake

Recipe from Sharon Moncrief. We did the beaches, the bay, the museums, church, school, Disneyland...we did it all with the Moncrief family when our children were young. It was a good time...
1 1/2 cups oil
4 eggs, one at a time
2 cups flour
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons salt
3 cups grated carrots
  1. Beat oil and eggs, one at a time.
  2. Sift together flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
  3. Blend two mixures and then add carrots.
  4. Pour into a 9 x 13 inch pan.
  5. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-45 minutes.
  6. Frost with Cream Cheese Frosting. Sprinkle with nuts, if desired.

Cream Cheese Frosting:

  • 1 3 oz cream cheese
  • 1/2 cube butter
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Combine all, beat until fluffy and light. You will need to double this if you bake the cake in layers and need filling and want to cover cake adequately.
