Instructions
In a large bowl, beat together the sugar, oil, and egg replacer on low speed until mixed; add the dry ingredients and vanilla, and then stir in the carrots, nuts, and raisins.
Pour the batter into an 8 x 8-inch baking pan (greased and floured); bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes or until a wooden pick comes out clean when inserted into the middle of the cake.
Prepare the frosting by beating together the buttery spread, cream cheese, and milk; add the vanilla and then gradually add the powdered sugar until the frosting is light and fluffy.
Once cool, frost the cake with the cream cheese frosting.
