Easy Carrot Cake Mix Cookies
A quick way to make cookies using boxed carrot cake mix. You can add in your favorite mix-ins such as nuts, raisins or chocolate chips. I also add a small amount of freshly grated carrots for flavor and texture. Great carrot cake flavor with less time and mess.

Instructions
-
Mix ingredients on low speed for 30 seconds, then on medium for a minute. The batter will be thick, so you have to judge when it’s finished. Fold in your mix-ins.

Drop by rounded tbsp onto a baking sheet. Press down slightly with your fingers.

Bake in a preheated, 350 degree oven for 11-12 minutes. Allow to cool for a couple of minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Store in a tightly sealer container.
Recipe Notes
I added some shredded/grated carrots before mixing to add more carrot flavor and texture. I used a few baby carrots that I had in the fridge, approximately ¼ cup. For mix-ins I used chopped pecans. I rotated the pans in the oven after cooking for 4 minutes, then repeated twice more for the total 12 minutes.
