"Tara's" Carrot cake!

This one needs no introduction - bake and enjoy!

Ingredients:
300g plain flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1 tsp salt
175g sugar (the recipe says "light muscovado" sugar but I don't think I have ever actually used that, normally make do with brown cane sugar)
50g walnuts
3 eggs
handful of sultanas
2 soft bananas mashed
175g carrots grated
175ml corn oil

Soft cheese icing
100g butter softened
200g icing sugar sifted
100g cream cheese

Preheat the oven to 160 degrees, grease and line a tin.
Sift the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt into a bowl and mix. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well.
Put into the tins and bake for 30 - 35 mins or until risen and firm to the touch.
Leave to cool completely before icing
To make the icing mix all ingredients together and then spread onto the cake.
Sprinkle a bit of cinnamon on top and voila!
