Carrot Cake
1 cup oil
2 cups sugar
2 cups whole wheat flour (I've never tried white with this, but it'd prolly work just wouldn't be as dense)
4 eggs
1 tsp salt
1.5 tsp baking soda
1.5 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ground cloves
1 tsp ground nutmeg
3 cups grated carrots
(I've added raisins and walnuts before and I like the extra goodies, my husband doesn't)

Combine all the ingredients in a bowl starting with the wet ones working your way into the dry ones and beat well. I usually beat my eggs first before adding them. Pour into greased and floured pan (I use the 8" circles) and bake at 350 for 45 minutes. Baking time may need to be adjusted 5-10 minutes either way depending on your oven and altitude.

Either frost with cream cheese frosting or...
when it is warm pour a glaze of 1/3rd cup sugar and juice of an orange over the cake. Then frost with powedered sugar icing (butter/powdered sugar/milk).
