OLD FASHIONED CARROT CAKE
This is a sweet, heavy delicious cake that you will never fail on making. I can't keep it in my house for any more than 24 hours... Everyone eats it as soon as it's ready. The kids love this recipe for a school snack too, it's so heavy and filling for a recess snack! You can add pineapple, raisins and/or walnuts if you like... I don't!

Steps:
- Grate 4-5 medium carrots.
- Pre-Heat oven to 350.
- Grease 9x13 pan (I use an air-bake pan with a lid so I can just refrigerate after cake cools and is icing-ed).
- In a large bowl mix sugar, flour, baking soda, salt & cinnamon (stir together).
- In a medium bowl mix oil, eggs & carrots. (blend on medium with mixer).
- Combined wet & dry ingredients and mix till all ingredients are wet (Blending is not required).
- Bake 50 min, check with knife. Cake should be perfect at 50 minute.
- Blend cream cheese till smooth.
- Add vanilla, blend.
- Add icing sugar to preference of thickness. I like the whole 2 cups, sometimes a little bit more.
- Refrigerate icing till cake cools (30-40 min) Then spread evenly over cake & enjoy!
