In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring in the carrots. Pour into the prepared pans and bake for about 45 minutes, or until an inserted straw or toothpick withdraws cleanly. Allow the cake to cool before icing. In a bowl, beat together the butter and cream cheese until fluffy. Add the vanilla and sugar and beat until the ingredients combine and the icing is smooth. Don't overbeat.
