Cake: Beat eggs with splenda until frothy. Gradaully beat in oil. Add dry ingredients (if batter gets to thick use a wooden spoon or something comparable to finish mixing the batter). Stir in carrots, zucchini, and nuts. Pour into a greased 9 inch square baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 35 minutes or until top springs back when lightly touched.Frosting:This recipe calls for powdered sugar which can be made with splenda by mixing 2/3 cup of splenda with 1 tbsp of cornstarch which can then be put into a blender to make a powder (or I put the ingredients in a bowl and used a water glass to press it to a powdered sugar consistency). Blend cream cheese and butter. Then add sugar and vanilla. Beat or mix until smooth. Spread evenly over cooled cake.Number of Servings: 16Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user RENATE530.
