2 cups Self Raising Flour
1 teaspoon Salt
1-1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
1-1/2 teaspoon Ground Allspice
1 cup Brown Sugar
100 grams Walnuts, Roughly Chopped
3 cups Carrot, Grated
3 whole Eggs, Lightly Beaten

FOR THE ICING:

55 grams Unsalted Butter (small Cubes And Room Temperature)
1 cup Icing Sugar
1/2 teaspoons Vanilla Essence

1
Preheat oven to 180u00b0C (355u00b0F). Grease and line the base of a 9-inch (23cm) diameter cake tin. Set aside.
2
Sift flour, salt and spices into a large mixing bowl. Add brown sugar and mix together with a whisk.
3
Create a well in the centre of dry ingredients and add chopped walnuts, grated carrot, lightly whisked eggs and vegetable oil. Mix together until thoroughly combined.
4
Pour batter into prepared cake tin, spread evenly and place in the oven to bake for 45 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the middle of cake is removed clean.
5
Move cake (in the tin) to the fridge to chill before starting on frosting.
6
Once completely cooled, retrieve cake from the fridge, and start working on icing. Place cream cheese, butter, sugar and vanilla essence into a clean mixing bowl and beat with electric beaters until well combined and pale in colour.
7
Spread evenly atop carrot cake (while still in its tin). Gently lift cake out of its tin and run the back of a knife around the edge of the cake to leave a straight edge on icing.
8
Decorate as desired.
