INSTRUCTIONS
CAKE
FILLING
ICING
Cake: Whisk together corn oil and sugar. In a separate bowl mix flour,
cinnamon, baking powder, soda and salt. Sift 1/2 of this mixture into the
sugar/oil. Add the rest alternately with the 4 eggs. Add the carrots,
raisins and pecans. Bake in a greased and floured 10 inch tube pan at 350°
for 70 minutes. Cool, invert and split in 3 layers.
Filling: Heat sugar, flour and salt. Stir in cream. Work in butter. Stir
and simmer 1/2 hour until golden. Cool. Add vanilla and pecans. Cool
overnight.
Icing: Cream cheese and butter. Sift in powdered sugar. Mix in vanilla and
chill. Spread the filling between the 3 layers. Frost the top and sides
with the icing. Pat the coconut on the sides. Decorate the top, if desired.
Yield: 12 to 18 servings.
