Beat eggs, oil, sugar, and vanilla. In a separate bowl, mix all dry ingredients together. Gradually incorporate dry ingredients to wet. mixture Stir in carrots and fold in the nuts and raisins. Pour mixture into prepared pan. Bake for 40-50 minutes.
To make the frosting, make sure ingredients are at room temperature. Beat cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla until you achieve a smooth consistency. Add a teaspoon or two of milk if it is too thick. After cake has cooled, frost away.

I made my version using 1 cup whole wheat flour and 1 cup all-purpose flour. The texture of the cake was a bit grainier, but nonetheless delicious. It was a healthier compensation.
