A very soft cake-like cookie. A great way to get carrots into my Dad's diet; sure he is not the only one who needs a little help that way. Wish I could tell you where I got this, but...Dad never knew there were carrots in his cookies.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid any mishaps.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the cookies will be. So use fresh carrots, unsweetened coconut, and pure vanilla extract.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cookies keep their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The cookies should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). If the oven is too hot, the cookies will brown too quickly and the insides will be undercooked. If the oven is too cool, the cookies will take too long to bake and will be dry.
- Let the cookies cool completely before frosting: This will help the frosting set properly.
Conclusion:
Carrot coconut cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are soft and chewy, with a sweet and nutty flavor. The cream cheese frosting adds a delightful tanginess that complements the cookies perfectly. Whether you are baking for a party or just want a sweet snack, these cookies are sure to please everyone.
