Carrot Cake


Blend:
3/4 c. pureed peaches
1/4 c. oil
1 c. white sugar
1 c. brown sugar
3 eggs

Mix in:
3/4 tsp. salt
2 tsp. cinnamon
sprinkle nutmeg
2 tsp. soda
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp. vanilla

3 c. grated carrots
2 1/2 c. flour
nuts as desired
coconut as desired
crushed pineapple (drained) as desired

Bake in 2 round pans or a 9 x 13 at 350 degrees for about 43 minutes (depending on oven and elevation.)

I made this for Wesley's birthday and, amazingly enough, it was great. We didn't do coconut or crushed pineapple because he's not into that, but you might be!

  2. I used cream cheese frosting--but I was too stingy in the middle, so make sure to be generous there.
