Ingredients

1 cup white sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ⅓ cups gluten-free all-purpose baking flour (such as Cup4Cup™)
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
2 cups grated carrots
½ (8 ounce) package cream cheese
¼ cup butter, softened
2 cups confectioners' sugar

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
Beat white sugar and vegetable oil together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy; beat in eggs, 1 at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract and mix.
