Iced Carrot Cake Cookies Recipe 455

ICED CARROT CAKE COOKIES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, bread flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and both sugars on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, and mix until combined. Pour in the vanilla extract and mix to combine.
• With the mixer on low, gently pour the flour mixture into the wet mixture and continue mixing until combined. Stir in the shredded carrots, chopped pecans, raisins, and oats until evenly distributed.
• Refrigerate dough for at least 1 hour (You may scoop the dough prior to refrigerating if you'd like. It is often easier than scooping out chilled dough.).
• When you are ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350° and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Scoop out the chilled dough and place on the prepared pans, leaving 3 inches between each dough ball. Bake in the preheated oven for 16 to 18 minutes, or until the tops are puffed and the edges are set. It is difficult to overbake these cookies since there is a lot of moisture. :)
• While the cookies cool, prepare the icing by mixing the cream cheese, confectioners sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until it is a smooth, thick liquid. You can test the drizzle by dipping a fork into it and lifting it 6 or 8 inches above the bowl, allowing the icing to drip off. You'll want it to run in a steady stream but be thick enough that it takes a few seconds for it to dissolve back into the bowl.
• Drizzle the cooled cookies with the prepared icing and enjoy.
