Sift together flour, cinnamon, salt and baking soda. Slowly add 1/3 of the dry ingredients to egg mixture; beat well. Repeat with remaining dry ingredients, beating well after each addition.
Batter will be extrememly stiff; it may be necessary to blend with a spatula or spoon. One by one, fold in carrots, coconut, pineapple, walnuts and raisins.
Divide batter between the 3 prepared cake pans. Bake at 350 dgrees F for 40-45 minutes, arranging cake pans in oven once.
The cake is done when the tester inserted in center comes out clean. Let cake cool in pans 5 minutes. Turn out onto rack to cool completely.
When cakes are cool, prepare frosting: combine margarine, cream cheese, sugar and vanilla. Beat until smooth. Frost cake.

Everything you ever wanted to know about hot chili peppers....
I did not have the corn to add, but I made the rest as described and this was devoured over Christmas. Even by my Mother who despises CANNED green beans. She had 3 servings and asked for the recipe!


A truly amazing combination of flavors. The dressing is divine, the warm and tart goat cheese combined with the sweetness of apple ring is truly out of this world.
