3 eggs
2 cups sugar
1-1/2 cups salad oil
3 cups flour
2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup chopped nuts
1- 16oz can crushed pineapple (do not drain )
2 cups grated carrot
1 cup raisins ( optional )
Frosting:
1 (3oz) pkg cream cheese-softened
1/4 cup butter or margarine - softened
2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 box powdered sugar ( 2 cups )

Directions:

Beat eggs. Add sugar and beat till thick and lemon colored. Add oil and beat well. Sift dry ingredients together and add to sugar-egg mixture. Add vanilla, crushed pineapple with its juice, and carrots. Add nuts and raisins. Pour into greased & sugared tube pan or 9x13 pan. Bake at 350 for the tube pan, 40-45 min for the loaf pan. For frosting, combine all ingredients and spread on cooled cake. Use as much more or less powdered sugar as needed to achieve desired consistency.

not available

I prefer no pineapple in the cake. For fruit flavor I bake two layers and "frost" between the layers with apricot preserves.
