All carrot cakes, or in this case, carrot cake cookies, need to have a killer cream cheese frosting to go with it. Carrot cake also needs to have coconut. Since I didn’t put any IN the cookie, I decided to throw it into my cream cheese frosting. Best decision ever.

Carrot Cake Cookies
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with a silicone mat.
- Mix together room temperature butter, eggs, and melted coconut oil until well combined.
- Using a spatula, stir in the carrot cake mix. The dough will be thick and sticky.
- Stir in the packet of carrots (and raisins, if using) and white chocolate chips.
- Use a cookie scoop to scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 8 - 10 minutes. They may seem a little underdone, that's ok, remove them from the oven and let them sit for about 10 minutes.
- Remove them from the baking sheet and let them cool completely on a wire cooling rack.
- Beat cream cheese for one minute. Scrape down the bowl.
- Beat in butter and mix until fluffy. Scrape down the bowl.
- With the mixer on, slowly beat in powdered sugar. Scrape down the bowl.
- Now, add in 1 tablespoon heavy cream, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Scrape down bowl and beat in another tablespoon of heavy creamy if it's too thick.
- Lastly, beat in toasted coconut.*
- The warmed coconut will slightly thin out the frosting. Cover with saran wrap and place in the fridge to firm up.
- Take one cooled cookie and flip it upside down.
- Using a large cookie scoop, scoop chilled frosting on the cookie.
- Take another cookie and place it on top!
- Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
