Steps:
- Mix together the cream cheese, 3 tbsp icing sugar and the vanilla extract in a bowl, then put in the freezer to firm up for 30 mins.
- Meanwhile, combine the flour, baking powder and spices in a bowl. In a larger bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until creamy. Beat in the egg, followed by the carrot. Tip in the dry ingredients and mix to form a dough.
- Line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Dust your hands with a little flour, then divide the dough into 14 balls and place on the sheet. Use the palm of your hand to flatten each one to a thin circle. Add 1 tsp of the cream cheese mixture to the centre of each one, then carefully wrap the dough up and around the filling to seal it in, pinching the top and rolling back into a rough ball to stop any of the filling leaking out.
- When all the balls are shaped, use your palm to flatten them slightly, then put in the fridge to chill for 30 mins. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6.
- Bake the cookies for 20 mins until golden and crisp. Remove from the oven, let them firm up on the tray for 10-15 mins, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
- Mix the icing sugar with the orange juice to a drizzling consistency. Drizzle all over the cookies, sprinkle with the walnuts and orange zest, then allow to set. Best eaten on the day they are made, but will keep in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

CARROT COOKIES
These soft citrus-infused carrot cookies get a moisture barrier and a little extra zing from the orange flavored frosting. They are not anything like spicy, heavy carrot cake, they are light and make a wonderful summer cookie. My mother got this recipe from a dear friend of our family, and I have not seen nor had another carrot cookie like these anywhere else.

MRS. GILLAN'S CARROT COOKIES
Gillan's Bakery was a very well-known and popular place in my hometown of Moberly MO. We lived in the country, so my mother would always shop at Gillan's when we went into town. She loved their doughnuts, cinnamon rolls, bear claws and gooey butter coffee cakes. At Easter they would bake Hot Cross Buns, so they would always be a special treat for our family. Paula Gillan was in my high school class. I attended a "bunking party" at her house back in the late 50's or early 60's. The refreshments included these wonderful carrot cookies. Mrs. Gillan graciously shared her recipe with me. Now it's 50 years later, and it's still a favorite of mine.
