OLD VIRGINIA CARROT TEA CAKE
I cut this out of the Vancouver Sun newspaper some time in the 80's. It is one of the nicest carrots cakes I've tried, and it really doesn't need icing.

OLD-FASHIONED CARROT CAKE
MY FAMILY thinks this is the best carrot cake ever! We love the moist texture. The surprise is in the frosting. It's a pleasant departure from the usual cream cheese frosting that tops most carrot cakes. This cake doesn't last very long around our house! -Muriel Doherty, Phoenix, Arizona

OLD-FASHIONED CARROT CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
A pleasingly moist cake, this treat is the one I requested that my mom make each year for my birthday. It's dotted with sweet carrots and a hint of cinnamon. The fluffy buttery frosting is scrumptious with chopped walnuts stirred in. One piece of this homemade carrot cake is never enough-better than all the other carrot cakes recipes I've tried!-Kim Orr, West Grove, Pennsylvania

TEA ROOM CARROT CAKE
This recipe is perfect for teas, holidays, or any occasion you can come up with for an excuse to make it...like breakfast! LOL Since I have been posting a lot of cookie and cake recipes for the holidays, I thought I would include this one. This recipe is from the woman who did all the food events at the church we used to go to....

Steps:
- 1. Combine first 4 ingredients and mix well. Add carrots and coat thoroughly. In a seperate bowl, mix oil, eggs and sugar together. Add to carrot mixture and stir until well blended. Add any or all of the final 3 ingredients. (Although I am not generally a big fan of raisins, or coconut for that matter, in this case, use it all! It's part of why it's soooooo good!) Spray bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray and pour mixture into it. Let stand for 20 minutes before putting in the oven. Bake for 1 hour, or until middle springs back. (I'm not good at the "springs back" thing. I use a toothpick. If it comes out clean after being inserted into the bread, it's done. This is a sticky bread, so the toothpick will probably come out with sticky bits of bread on it, but if gooey batter is on the toothpick, it still needs some baking time. I would check it again every 5 minutes or so, depending on how gooey it still is.) Let cool in pan for 10-15 minutes before turning onto cooling rack. (I know that she has also made this in loaf pans, as she made it in bulk for our church events and the slices were like that of a typical loaf bread. If you use a loaf pan, adjust cooking times as needed.)
