I have had the Cheesecake factory Carrot Cheesecake so this will be a test, BUT if like most copy cat recipes I have found they are pretty good.

yield: ONE 9 OR 9 1/2" CHEESECAKE

16 ounces cream cheese (at room temperature)
3/4 cup granulated sugar

3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla

Pineapple Cream Cheese Frosting:
2 ounces cream cheese, softened (I used 4 oz.)
