1. Put 8 ounces of cream cheese in a bowl with 1/4 cup of sugar and 1 egg. Use a blender to blend this until it is smooth. Set aside for later use as the filling.

5. Add in the 3 cups of shredded carrots and 1 cup of chopped pecans. Fold everything together evenly.
6. Set aside 2 cups of batter.
7. Spray a 9 inch bundt pan with non stick spray containing flour.
8. Begin filling in the bottom half of the pan with the batter.
9. Spoon in the cream cheese filling in the middle of the cake.
10. Cover the filling with a top layer (the 2 cups of batter set aside earlier).
11. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for approximately 45 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
12. Let cool for about 10 minutes before turning over the pan to pop the cake out on a flat surface.
