Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- 2
With a stand mixer, cream the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar, until light and fluffy.
-Then add eggs and vanilla, mix until well incorporated.
-Add the flour, oats, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Mix with wooden spoon. Do not over mix, just until the flour is incorporated.
-Stir in the carrots, coconut, and walnuts. - 3
Drop the dough by the tablespoon, 2 inches apart, onto the prepared cookie sheet. This is easiest with a 1 tablespoon sized cookie scoop. The dough will be very sticky.
- 4
Bake the cookies for 12-16 minutes, just until the edges are starting to brown and the tops don’t look shiny anymore.
- 5
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then move them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- 6
Once the cookies are cool, make the frosting. Whisk all ingredients until you have a smooth frosting
- 7
Place a good chunk of frosting on one of the cookies and press them together gently to spread the frosting out between them.
Don't go skimpy, or you will have a lot of icing left:) - 8
NOTE,
You can replace the walnuts with raisins as well.
Also make sure to grate the carrots finely (with the small holes on a box grater) as coarsely grated carrots, such as the ones you can buy pre-shredded at the grocery store, do not work well in these cookies. Measure out the grated carrot loosely, and avoid packing them into the measuring cup. Carrots packed in water, such as baby carrots, will not work well, as they will add too much moisture to the cookie dough.

Easter always poses problems for people with allergies to things like dairy and soya, every holiday does really. I hate for my kids to miss out on any treats. I made these for the twins to take to their school nursery Easter Bonnet Parade as I know the after party will be full of goodies that Jack can't have but now he can have some lovely, chewy carrot cake cookies!

My favorite recipe of carrot cake is the one developed by America’s Test Kitchen. Unlike the usual “dump and stir” method, this version creates a dessert that is layered, moist, tangy, and glamorous. Ricardo -

When you want a less sweet sweet treat, carrot cake is a great option that will give you your serving of veggies while enjoying a baked good! Plus, made with extra virgin olive oil from Spain, it's better for your heart than other baked goods - meaning you can really enjoy your sweet treat. Olive Oils from Spain -

I actually made this cake for Valentine's day. I mean Valentine's day is too overfilled with chocolate and heart shapes. Sometimes we just need a simple cake like this. Unlike all the carrot cakes which I'd tasted, there're actually carrots in this cake. Those commercial cakes are usually filled with food coloring and artificial flavorings. To make the cake worse, they used over-sugary cream cheese fillings which kinda make the cakes unbearable to eat, IMHO.As you should have known, I am not a fan of cakes. So, if I have to eat a cake, it has to be my way; dense, moist, fudgy and custardy without over the top sweetness or frosting. Bruno Albouze seems to have what I am looking for. Head over to his YouTube channel for gorgeous desserts, cakes and dishes. Subscribe to his channel too.I decided to decorate my cake with some bits and pieces of honeycomb. There are a few names to call the honeycomb: honeycomb toffee, hokey pokey or cinder toffee. It is like a science experiment when the baking soda is added. I also decided to keep my cake 100% vegan, cos it is one of my goals for 2019; to push out at least 1 vegan recipe a week. In closing, I really hope you will give this recipe a try. I know I am late tho, but this cake will sit well on any dining table without any special occasion. Daniel Lim -

Carrot cake was my mother’s favorite cake. I can remember being four years old and peeling carrots and licking the batter off of the spoon. My father always had something to say about the raw eggs, but my mother didn’t care. Haha, I survived!! Anyway, I got this lamb mold and I wanted to try it out, so I made a carrot cake. This will of course work with any pan. Karl -

When I was living in England, I received this spiced carrot cake numerous times during the Christmas season. I got a friend to teach me the recipe. The original version was sweeter, but I took the liberty of reducing the sugar and oil, but for the most-part the steps and ingredients are true to the original.Generally speaking, if you use margarine rather than butter, there is no need to add salt.In Step 1 when sifting the dry ingredients, exclude the almond powder.In Step 6, the longer the batter rests, the richer and tastier it becomes. It's okay to let it rest for 2 or 3 days. Recipe by tora-mame. (One 18 cm diameter cake.) cookpad.japan -
