Ingredients:

• ¾ cups Brown Sugar


• 2 sticks unsalted butter


• 1 cup grated carrots


• ½ teaspoon salt


• ½ teaspoon baking soda


• 2 eggs, beaten


• 1 ½ cups flour, sifted


• 1 teaspoon baking powder


• 1 tablespoon lemon juice


• 1 tablespoon water

Directions:
Melt shortening. Add brown sugar. Add carrots, beaten eggs, and rest of the ingredients. Bake in a greased (I use Baker's Joy spray) 6 Cup ring mold at 350 Degrees for 45 minutes. Test for doneness with a toothpick (it should come out clean). 10 osen sides with knife if necessary, turn upside down on a round platter, to serve. May be mixed the night before, covered, and refrigerated, and bake d the next day. Recipe may be doubled to use a 12 Cup ring mold to serve 12-14, depending on the rest of the menu.
