Spoon into a greased 8 inch or 9 inch square baking pan and bake approximately 25 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the cake comes out clean.

• Place oil, applesauce, sugar, eggs, carrot pieces, and vanilla in a blender. Chop until carrots are in very small pieces, but not pureed.
• Pour this mixture into dry ingredients; mix well.
• Then add crushed pineapple (entire 8 oz can) and roasted nuts.
• Pour into well-greased and floured 9 x 13 pan or 2 round cake pans.
• Bake for 45 minutes or until cake tests done. Let cool 5 minutes, then turn out onto rack to cool completely.
• *Optional Icing (makes a small amount so you may want to double it):.
• Beat together 4 oz cream cheese and 2 Tbs. unsalted butter. Meanwhile, in a blender or food processor, combine 1 1/2 cups splenda with 2 Tbs. cornstarch. Blend until it becomes a superfine powder, then add it to cream cheese/butter mixture. Thin with orange juice (crucial for flavor and to counter dreaded Splenda aftertaste!) to desired consistency (I prefer somewhere between a glaze and a frosting), then add 1 pinch of salt and a teaspoon of vanilla. Ice your cake and Enjoy!
