Carrot Cake Oatmeal Cookies

The combination of homemade cream cheese icing and fresh carrot cake oatmeal cookies is so dangerously good! These cookies did not last long in the house. I was passing them out to the neighbors and John's co-workers in hopes of not eating the entire plate.

I love how easy these cookies are to make! They only take a few minutes to prep and they are ready for the oven.

Ingredients needed to make Carrot Cake Oatmeal Cookies

Carrot Cake Oatmeal Cookies Ingredients

  • Oatmeal Cookie Mix
  • Butter
  • Carrots
  • Water
  • Ground cinnamon
  • Egg

Cream Cheese Frosting Ingredients

  • Cream cheese
  • Butter
  • Vanilla
  • Powdered sugar

Recipe Tips

A cheese grater works to grate the carrots. If you don't have a cheese grater you can use a vegetable peeler and peel the carrots, then cut the pieces into small pieces for the cookies. You want to make sure the pieces are small enough to mix well with the cookie dough.

I use a medium ice cream scoop to scoop the dough onto the cookie sheets. This helps make sure every cookie is the same size.

The homemade cream cheese icing tastes amazing. If you want to save time or don't have the ingredients to make cream cheese icing you can totally grab a tub of pre-made cream cheese icing and use that.

This recipe makes approximately 11 pairs of cookies sandwiched together or 22 cookies. If you want to spread the cookies out you can thin out the cream cheese icing and drizzle it across individual cookies so you have more of them to serve.

      Hi,
      I think it makes a fair amount of cookies. It has been a year or 2 since I made the recipe. I wish I remembered exactly how many it made. I may need to make these again since they are so good.

    Hi Tammilee,
    I'm not one for EVER commenting on recipes I've found on Pinterest, but I made these cookies and have to say, they're the best cookies I've ever made. My husband whole-heartedly agrees! I shared the last four with four friends I had over and each one requested them as their birthday present! They were a huge hit, so thank you for sharing this awesome recipe! It will be used many many many times over 🙂
    Thanks!!!
    Kt

    I can see these being a hit if I make them with my basic oatmeal cookie recipe. Thanks for the inspiration.
