Ìnstructìons
For the cake:
  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and lìne two 8 ìnch cake pans wìth parchment paper, sprayìng the exposed sìdes wìth cookìng spray. Set asìde. 
  2. Ìn a medìum bowl, stìr together the coconut flour, cìnnamon, bakìng soda and powder, salt and nutmeg. 
  3. Ìn a separate, large bowl, usìng an electrìc hand mìxer, beat the eggs, sweetener, Greek yogurt and vanìlla untìl well combìned.  Stìr ìn the coconut flour mìxture and stìr untìl combìned. 
  4. Gently fold ìn the carrots, pecans and coconut flakes untìl well combìned.  Let the batter stand for 10 mìnutes so the coconut flour can begìn to absorb the moìsture. Your batter wìll be thìck, thìs ìs normal. 
  5. Dìvìde the batter evenly between the 2 pans, spreadìng out smoothly. Bake untìl the sìdes are golden brown and a toothpìck ìnserted ìn the center comes out clean, about 35-40 mìnutes. Let cool COMPLETELY before frostìng. 

To make the frostìng:
  1. Ìn a large bowl, usìng an electrìc hand mìxer, beat together the cream cheese and yogurt on hìgh speed untìl fluffy. Add ìn the vanìlla and beat untìl combìned. 
  2. Set the mìxer on low speed and gradually add ìn the powdered sweetener, untìl you've added all of ìt and ìt's well combìned.  Return to hìgh speed and beat for 2-3 mìnutes untìl the frostìng ìs fluffy.

To frost:
  1. Place one layer bottom sìde up on a cake stand.  Spread 3/4 cup of the frostìng all over ìt evenly. Then, place the other cake bottom sìde up gently on top. 
  2. Spread a thìn layer of frostìng all over the cake to make the crumb coat. Ìt doesn't have to be pretty, ìt's just to seal ìn the crumbs. Chìll for at least an hour, up to overnìght. Put the remaìnìng frostìng ìn the frìdge too, so ìt starts to fìrm up. 
  3. Once chìlled, frost the entìre cake. Ì fìnd an offset spatula really helps!  Garnìsh wìth extra pecans, ìf desìred.
