Ingredients
1&1/4 cups Oil

1 cup Brown Sugar
1 tsp Salt
2 tsp Cinnamon
2 tsp Baking Powder
3 Eggs, beaten
3 cups Carrots
1 cup Sultanas
1 cup Walnuts
Topping
4 oz Cream Cheese
4 oz Butter
1 sachet Vanilla sugar
8 oz Icing sugar
Method
· Beat oil and sugar until nice and smooth.
· Sieve flour, salt, baking powder and cinnamon.
· Add carrots, sultanas and walnuts to the flour mixture and mix.
· Now start mixing in the eggs and then the oil & sugar mixture .
· Pour into an oiled loaf tin.
· Bake at Gas mark 5 for about an hour.
· Cream the cheese and butter. Add the sugar and mix.
· When the cake has cooled down, turn on to wire rack and top with the creamed cheese. The amount that I used will only cover the top of the cake, if you prefer to cover the whole of the cake make double the amount.
· Sprinkle some grated carrot and chopped walnuts to give it that finishing touch.
