Directions:
Pre-heat oven to 350º. Mix sugar and oil. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Sift flour with the soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg; add alternately with carrots to sugar mixture. Bake in a Pam sprayed 9x13 pan, about 55 minutes. Cool.
For the icing: Cream together the cream cheese and margarine until smooth. Add vanilla and powdered sugar until smooth. Frost a cooled cake, then add walnuts on top.

Note: The longer this cake sits, the better and more moist it becomes. Good idea to make this one to two days ahead of when it will be served.
