Celebrate Easter With Carrot Cake With Cream Cheese Frosting

8 ounces softened cream cheese
6 tablespoons softened butter
3 cups sifted confectioners sugar
Chopped walnuts (optional)
To make the cake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Sift together the flour, sugar, salt, baking soda and cinnamon into a bowl and stir together.
Combine the walnuts, carrots, pineapple and coconut in a bowl. Add the oil, eggs and vanilla to the dry ingredients and stir to combine.
Add the carrot mix and blend together.
Pour into three 9-inch cake pans that have been greased and floured.
Bake for 25 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Refrigerate in the pans. To remove from the pans, briefly heat the bottom of the pans on the stove and flip out onto a piece of parchment.
To make the frosting, combine the cream cheese, butter, vanilla and confectioners sugar in a mixing bowl and cream together.
Spread 1/2 between the layers and the remaining frosting over the top and sides.
To garnish, use chopped walnuts on the sides of the cake.
