Ingredients

Ingredients:

1 ( 9oz ) pkg. Frozen sliced carrots

2 cups Sugar

1 ½ cups Vegetable oil

4 Eggs, beaten

2 ½ cups All-purpose flour

2 tsp. Baking soda

2 tsp. Cinnamon

1 tsp. Salt

¾ cup chopped pecans or walnuts, divided

Frosting:

½ cup margarine or butter, softened

8oz cream cheese, softened

1 tsp. Vanilla extract

3 ½ cups confectioners' sugar

Directions

1)Preheat oven to 350º. Grease and flour a 9 x 13-inch baking pan. Cook carrots according to package directions until tender. Drain and mash in a large bowl. Add sugar, oil and eggs; beat well.

2)Mix flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Beat into carrot mixture. Stir in ½ cup pecans. Pour batter into pan. Bake for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

3)Cool cake in pan on a wire rack. To prepare frosting, beat margarine, cream cheese and vanilla extract in a bowl until creamy. Add enough confectioners' sugar to make frosting a “spreadable” consistency.

4)Spread frosting evenly over cake. Sprinkle top with remaining pecans. Cut into squares.
