Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan.
In a large bowl, beat together eggs, oil, white sugar and 2 teaspoons vanilla. Mix in flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Stir in carrots. Fold in pecans. Pour into prepared pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.
To Make Frosting: In a medium bowl, combine butter, cream cheese, confectioners' sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Beat until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Stir in chopped pecans. Frost the cooled cake.

Not what I expectedI didn't care for this recipe as much as others I have tried. It camr out really dark and heavy. The frosting had a good flavor, but it was too thin to spread and stay put. I ended up adding 3 more cups of powdered sugar. I'll stick to my "Old tried and true'. |

Good and SimpleI have been looking for a simple carrot cake recipe for years, when I came across this one, I just had to try it. I was easy to make and it came out beyond my expectations! It smelled wonderful while it baked and tasted just as delightful! |
