Hellmann's Hawaiian Carrot Cake

Submitted by FrenchBunny

"I got this recipe a real long time ago...like 25 years ago. I think I sent away to Hellmans asking for some recipes and this was one of them. It is absolutely moist and delicious. The flavors are outstanding especially with the cream cheese frosting. Can't be too bad for you right, it has carrots....must be healthy. Depends on who I am making this for I sometimes eliminate the walnuts."

A real splurge. After all, it's now February and my goal of exercise avoidance for the new year is right. So far I’m at 100%.
