Carrot Cake

A decadent carrot cake appropriate for any occasion.

Ingredients

• 3 eggs

• 1 1/2 cups white sugar

• 1 1/4 cup oil (canola or vegetable)

• 3 cups flour

• 2 tsp baking soda

• 2 tsp cinnamon

• 1 tsp salt

• 1 tsp nutmeg

• 2 cups grated carrot

• 1 cup crushed pineapple (not drained!)

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 F.

• Cream together 3 eggs, 1 1/2 cups white sugar, 1 1/4 cup oil.

• Mix together 3 cups flour, 2 tsp baking soda, 2 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp nutmeg.

• Add dry mix to the previously creamed eggs, sugar and oil and mix well.

• Add 2 cups grated carrot and 1 cup crushed pineapple and mix well.

• Grease large tube pan very well!

• Add cake mix, and bake at 350 F for 1 hour.

This makes a large cake. Cream cheese icing goes great, I recommend doubling that recipe to cover this cake.
