14K CARROT CAKE

Steps:

• 3. In a medium size bowl, sift together flour, salt, cinnamon, baking soda,and pumpkin pie spices.
• 4. In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs until light and foamy, gradually add white sugar, oil and vanilla beat to incorporate each addition. With a spatula fold in pineapples. Add the sifted dry ingredients, stirring into the wet mixture until absorbed. Fold in the carrot mixture (carrots, brown sugar & raisins/craisins) and walnuts.
• 5. Pour your batter evenly into the prepared cake pans. Bake for 35-40 minutes until cake tests done by inserting a toothpick to see if it comes out clean.
• 6. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan. When completely cooled, frost with cream cheese frosting.
