Carrot Cake Cookies With Cream Cheese Filling Recipes

CARROT CAKE COOKIES WITH CREAM CHEESE FILLING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Combine white sugar, brown sugar, and butter for cookies in a mixing bowl. Beat until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla extract and mix on medium speed until well combined.
• Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt together in a bowl. Mix into butter mixture on low speed until well combined. Mix in oats and carrots, followed by raisins and walnuts.
• Chill for 1 hour in the refrigerator.
• Scoop batter onto the prepared baking sheets using a tablespoon-sized scoop, leaving about 2 inches between cookies.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges are set, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack.
• Beat cream cheese in a mixing bowl to soften. Add butter and mix until combined. Beat in confectioners' sugar, followed by vanilla extract. Beat 30 seconds more to lighten.
• Spread frosting onto one cooled cookie. Sandwich together with another. Repeat with remaining cookies.

CARROT CAKE COOKIES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the cream cheese filling: In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, flour, and vanilla. Mix with a fork until smooth.
• Scoop 16 teaspoon-sized balls of icing onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Freeze for at least 1 hour.
• Make the cookies: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180˚C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. (Do not use a silicone mat--if the bottoms of the cookies are too thin, the silicone will stick to the cookies and the icing centers will fall through when removed from the pan.)
• In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar, and beat with an electric hand mixer or whisk for 1-2 minutes, or until well combined.
• Add the eggs, 1 at a time, then the vanilla and cinnamon and beat until combined.
• Add the flour mixture and beat until just incorporated.
• Fold in the carrots, raisins, and pecans with a rubber spatula.
• Scoop 16 heaping tablespoons of dough onto 2 prepared baking sheets, spacing at least 3 inches apart. Flatten each scoop with moistened fingers.
• Place a frozen icing ball in the center of each dough round.
• Top the filling with another scoop of dough and use moistened fingers to flatten and seal the edges so the filling is completely encased.
• Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the edges are light brown. Be careful not to overbake or the filling will ooze out.
• Let the cookies cool completely. This is important! If you try to lift the cookies before they are cool and the icing is still warm, it could fall through the cookies.
• Enjoy!
