A carrot cake cookie is a cookie prepared with ingredients that provide a flavor and texture similar to carrot cake.[1][2]

Ingredients

Typical ingredients include grated carrot, flour, sugar or brown sugar, cooking oil, spices and baking soda.[1][2] Additional ingredients may include shredded coconut, raisins, molasses and nuts.[1][2][3][4][5] Many variations exist, such as carrot cake whoopie pies, cookie sandwiches, and those prepared in the style of an energy bar.[4][5][6][7] Cream cheese is sometimes used as a topping or a filling in cookie sandwich varieties.[1][2][5][6] Vegan versions may use vegan cream cheese as a substitute for dairy-based cream cheese.[2][3]
