• Blend in vanilla, carrot, raisins (if adding) and pecans.
• Pour batter into a well greased 8 x 12 inch pan.

• When cake is cool, spread with cream cheese icing. When cake is frosted, sprinkle a small handful of pecans on top of cake.
• Note: Chopped peanuts or walnuts may be substituted for pecans.
• Note: I double this recipe and use a 13x9 pan.
