Instructions:
Preheat oven: Set your oven to 350°F (180°C).
Mix the cake batter: In a medium bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a larger bowl, mix butter, milk, eggs, grated carrots, crushed pineapple, and vanilla extract. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until just combined. Fold in walnuts, if using.
Prepare pans: Divide the batter evenly between two 9-inch round cake pans and smooth the tops.
Bake the cake: Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Make the frosting: Beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Mix in the butter until well combined. Gradually add powdered sugar and continue beating until smooth. Stir in vanilla extract.
Assemble the cake: Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread cream cheese frosting on top. Add the second layer and frost the outside of the cake with the remaining frosting.
Garnish and serve: Decorate with additional chopped walnuts if desired. Slice and enjoy!
