Even without tasting these, it is easy to see that they are going to be delicious, especially if you have any love for either carrot cake or cream cheese frosting. Much like Whoopie Pies, these Carrot Cake Cookie Sandwiches have a cake-like batter as a base, which bakes into a moist and tender cookie that is then sandwiched with a thick, sweet, satisfying filling. This batch was baked by JenJen, from Milk and Cookies, who reported that they were just as addictive as they look.
Because the batter for the cookies is quite wet, the texture is very similar to that of "real" carrot cake and this helps it to blend easily with the filling. The cookies themselves are flavored with cinnamon, brown sugar, walnuts and raisins. The filling is a simply sweetened mixture of cream cheese and honey that is beaten until fluffy, although a more traditional cream cheese frosting made with powdered sugar, vanilla and a bit of butter could be substituted to take this cookie from snack to dessert.
