Cabbage Patch Carrot Cake

Cabbage Patch Carrot Cake
From: Leanne Schaffner

Preheat oven to 350 F

Mix together:
2 c. sugar
1 ¼ c. salad (veg) oil
4 eggs

Add:
2 cups flour
2 tsp. soda
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla

Stir in:
3 cups grated carrots (about 6 medium)
2 tsp. cinnamon

Pour into 8 ½ x 11 inch pan (use 11 x 13 if you want a lid to fit over frosting)
Bake at 350 F for 45 minutes (I always have to keep it in for about 60 minutes in order to get the center done. I put strips of foil on the outside edge during the last 15-20 minutes to keep it from burning.) Insert toothpick in center…if it comes out clean then it is done!
