3 medium carrots, peeled and cut
1 c. orange juice
1/4 c. oil
1 yellow cake mix
3 eggs
1-1/2 c. coconut
1 c. packed brown sugar
3/4 c. chopped pecans
1/3 c. milk
1/3 c. melted margarine
1 tsp. vanilla
Combine carrots, juice and oil in blender until carrots are finely chopped. Mix cake mix, eggs and carrot mixture on medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour into greased and floured 9x13 pan (we used a bundt pan...i was in the mood for a bundt cake). Bake at 350F for 35-45 minutes (may be a little longer for a bundt). Combine remaining ingredients and spread over hot cake. Broil cake 3 to 5 minutes or until topping is golden brown (THIS IS IMPORTANT! watch the cake VERY carefully while broiling it...it will burn VERY easily and that would just be no good!). Serve warm or cool.
