This Carrot Cake Cookie is chewy, yet crisp on the edges, it is full of flavor and is SO good with a glass of milk or a cup of tea of coffee. Perfect for breakfast or a snack this cookie may just become your go to cookie.

How do you pick your favorite cookie? There are so many of them to choose from after all. We always try to keep some cookies in the freezer for when we need a cookie fix. 

PIN IT!!

When we bake cookies we try to make a double batch if we can. sometimes time wise (baking and mixing ect ) that just doesn’t work out but I always try to take at least 4 cookies out of the batch of cookies and freeze them. Sometimes you just need a cookie fix and there is nothing better than a homemade cookie.

The hardest thing about making this cookie is grating the carrot.   The rest of the cookie is easy peasy and gets a great flavor from a handful of spices.

You can use a cream cheese frosting for these cookies but because we like to have these for breakfast and as an anytime snack we never frost them. Plus we are so used to eating them like this and we make so many other cookies that we frost that is how we like them now.

You can add nuts and raisins to these cookies if you like too.  We like them as is. I  love nuts but don’t always like them in certain baked goods. Either way you make your cookies I guarantee these will be a family favorite. 

Mix your cookie dough then mix in the pineapple, white chocolate chips and carrot. Mix well.

Use a 1 Tablespoon cookie scoop to portion out the batter onto your prepared cookie sheets.

Make these Carrot Cake Cookies for your family!!
