Carrot Cake Cookies
If you are a carrot cake or a cookie fan, you are going to LOVE these carrot cake cookies! The cream cheese frosting on the top is so yummy! We have made these with raisins and without and both ways are really good. Plus, there’s just something wonderful about taking carrots and making them into cookies! Best kind of veggies 🙂
Are Carrot Cake Cookies Healthy?
As much as you want to think the carrots in these cookies will magically make them healthy, that’s not really the case. It has all the shortening, flour and sugar that you’d expect from a regular cookie. However, with the rolled oats, carrots and raisins, this is a more filling cookie. So perhaps your craving for something sweet will be satiated more quickly. Even if they don’t, moderation will help you enjoy this yummy treat, even if they can’t be considered “health food.” These bake perfectly on a mat using a baking sheet. The bottom will be a little darker but not too much. You will want to make sure not to over bake them.
