What’s a girl to do with a box of carrot cake mix and only ONE egg? Make carrot cake cookies of course!
I know I just did a Kitchen Crafts post, but I wanted to get this one out there before Easter. I improvised a little (ok a lot) on these, but I think they turned out pretty good. Only thing I would change is probably lighten up a little on the frosting. They were pretty sweet.
Ingredients:
– 1 box Betty Crocker Super Moist carrot cake mix (you could probably use others, this is just what I had)
– 1 egg
– 1/2 cup vegetable oil
– 1/4 cup water
– 1/4 cup flour
– 1/2 cup old fashioned oats (oatmeal)
Instructions:
- Mix all ingredients together in a bowl until smooth.
- Drop by large spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.
- Bake in 350° for 10-12 minutes until they start to set.
- Allow to cool completely and frost with cream cheese frosting.
So cute for Easter!

Made these last night, mine turned out pretty dry. Not sure what I did wrong.

They looked very dry when I was mixing so I add a table spoon extra of oil and water and also some walnuts and they turned out much better. Hope this helps you.

Oh, sorry. :( I'm not an expert baker by any means, we thought they were good though. I don't remember them being super dry.
