Steps:
- Heat oven to 350° F. Spray 12-cup fluted tube cake pan with cooking spray, or grease with butter and lightly flour.
- In large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add shredded carrots; toss to coat. In medium bowl, beat brown sugar, pineapple, 4 eggs, vegetable oil and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Add to dry ingredients; stir just until combined. Stir in chopped pecans.
- In medium bowl, beat Cream Cheese Swirl ingredients with whisk until smooth.
- Pour half of the cake batter in pan. Spoon cream cheese mixture on top, leaving 1 inch around edges. Spoon remaining cake batter on top.
- Bake about 60 minutes or until cake springs back when gently pressed. Cool in pan 15 minutes, then remove to cooling rack to cool completely, about 1 hour.
- In medium bowl, mix powdered sugar, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla and enough milk to make a thick but pourable glaze. Gently pour over cooled cake; top with pecans. Let stand 30 minutes for frosting to set before serving.
