Carrot Cake Cookies - Don't LOSE this Recipe 😋


Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
2. Combine Dry Ingredients & Mix:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined.
Fold in the shredded carrots, nuts, and raisins (if using).
3. Bake the Cookies:
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
4. Make the Cream Cheese Frosting:
In a mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese and butter until smooth.
Gradually add the powdered sugar and continue mixing until fluffy.
Stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Frost & Enjoy!
Once the cookies are completely cool, spread or pipe the cream cheese frosting on top.
Sprinkle with extra chopped nuts or a dusting of cinnamon for a decorative touch.
Tips for Success:
Extra Moist? Add 1 tablespoon of applesauce or crushed pineapple for an even softer texture.
Skip the Frosting? These cookies are delicious plain or dusted with powdered sugar!
Storage: Keep cookies in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze for later!
