1.The first thing you’ll want to do is preheat your oven to 350.

2.Now using a mixer cream together your butter, vanilla, white and brown sugar. Once that is all blended, add in your eggs one at a time and mix until they are well mixed.

3.Now add your flour a little at a time until it is all incorporated, then add in your baking soda, salt and cinnamon.

4.Once your batter is all mixed fold in your shredded carrots.

5.Now drop your cookie batter in rounded tablespoons onto a cookie sheet. I like to use a dough scoop to keep them all the same size.

6.Pop them in the oven for 11-13 minutes. Let them cool completely before frosting.

7.To make the frosting mix your cream cheese, butter, vanilla and salt together in an electric mixer until it is nice and creamy. Slowly add in your powdered sugar and blend until you have a nice creamy, fluffy icing.

8.Now spread each carrot cake cookie with a nice layer of icing and if you want give them a little carrot decoration.
