Fire Hall Carrot Cake

Here is the recipe for the carrot cake I sent to the fire hall with my husband last night.  Let me tell you, the reviews were off the charts with some saying it was the BEST carrot cake they ever had, even scooping a few pieces to take home.  Well now YOU (if you didn't already have a recipe you adore) have the best recipes and you can share them or not!  Here is the recipe for the cake I sent to the fire hall.  Enjoy!  P.S.  This one doesn't have the coconut I had in previous recipe and more spices.

4 eggs, 2 cups sugar, 1 white, 1 brown, 1 1/2 cups vegetable oil, 3 1/2 cups finely grated carrots, 1 small can (8 ounces) crushed pineapple with the juice, 2 1/2 cups flour, 2 tsp. baking soda, 1 tsp. salt, 1 tsp, cinnamon, 1 tsp. cloves, 1 tsp. nutmeg, 1 cup chopped pecans (or walnuts).

Blend the eggs, sugar, oil, carrots and crushed pineapple together.  On the side, sift together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and slowly add to cake mixture.  Stir in one cup chopped nuts.  Pour into a greased, 9X13 pan and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.  

For icing, use philly cream cheese butter cream in previous carrot cake recipe!

OH!  Enjoy!
