Add grated carrot and walnuts and stir in buttermilk slowly. Cake mix should look like this.

Pour mix into a 6 x 4 inch round tin. Now it’s time to bake. Bake at 170 degrees Celsius (340 degrees Fahrenheit) for 35-40 minutes or until skewer comes out clean.

Once cake has been cooled for at least one hour, cut cake in half.

It is time to make the delicious cream cheese and lemon icing.Lemon and Cream Cheese Icing

This can be done in three easy steps:

1. Cube cream cheese and butter, mix well then blend in milk

2. Add the zest of one lemon and lemon juice

3. Test icing to taste. If you have a sweet tooth and find it is not sweet enough add 1/4 cup of honey

Doesn’t this look delicious? Spread a thick layer of icing in the centre of the cake.
