1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice (or a mix of nutmeg , cloves, ginger and allspice)
2 cups pamelas ultimate baking and pancake mix
3/4 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1 1/2 cups carrots, shredded (about 4)
1/2 cup golden raisin
1/2 pecans, toasted & chopped (or walnuts)

In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs; add the oil and beat; add the brown sugar and beat until smooth.
Beat in the yogurt, vanilla, cinnamon and spice.
Add in the baking mix and beat until combined. (The batter should be a bit thicker than wheat flour batter.).

Spread the batter evenly in the cake pan; and place the pan in the center of a pre-heated oven.
Bake until the cake is firm, and a wooden pick inserted into the center emerges clean, about 40-45 minutes (or longer if necessary).
Cool on a wire rack and frost with cream cheese icing.
For cream cheese icing, beat the cream cheese and butter until fluffy.
Add the vanilla.
Add the powdered sugar a cup at a time; squeeze a little lemon (or other citrus) juice into the frosting and beat until smooth.
Add more sugar or juice as necessary.
