4 eggs
2 c. sugar
1 1/4 c. cooking oil
2 c. all-purpose flour
3 c. grated carrots
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 c. chopped nuts
3 or 4 drops black walnut extract

Mix sugar and oil; add eggs. Mix all dry ingredients then add a little at a time to egg mixture. Mix in carrots and nuts. Add black walnut and vanilla extract. Bake 1 1/2 hours in tube pan at 350 degrees.

GLAZE:

1 c. sugar
1/2 c. buttermilk
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tbsp. white Karo syrup

Bring to boiling point and continue stirring constantly. It will be very foamy. Pour over cake while can is in pan. Cake will absorb all the foam. (Keep glaze hot so it will stay foamy until it is poured over cake.)
