Anyway here's a quick one: Carrot Cake (love the stuff and I can't eat the
regular cake with the cream chees frosting that you normally see. Part of
the key is the portion size.)

Blend together the vegetable oil , boown sugar and egg. Add yogurt and
vanilla,. In a seperate bowl stir together flour, baking soda, baking
powder, salt, cinamon and nutmeg.. Add half hte flour mixture to the egg
mixture and mix well. Thoughtly drain pineapple and add to cake batter,
stir in remaining flour mixture. Add grated carrots. Pour batter into and
oiled 8" square cake pan. Bake at 350 for 35 to 40 minutes. For forsting
combine softened margarine, powdered sugar, orange peel and orange juice
concentrate. Cut cake into 16 squaress and frost each square with One half tsp
frosting. Yield 16.
