Carrot Cake Blossoms

 

Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Yield: 30 cookies

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
  • ½ cup light brown sugar
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 ½ cups grated carrots
  • ¾ cup golden raisins
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts
  • 30 White Blossoms

 

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375º F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, use electric mixer to cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla extract and mix again, about 1 minute.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, cinnamon, salt and baking powder. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix on low speed until fully incorporated, about 2 minutes. Fold in carrots, raisins, and ½ cup chopped walnuts. Reserve remaining walnuts for the next step.
  4. Use a cookie scoop to form 1 inch dough balls. Roll in reserved chopped walnuts then place them 3 inches apart on a lined baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until center of cookies look puffy. Allow to rest on the baking sheet for at least 2 minutes before pressing one White Blossom into the center of each cookie. Move to wire rack to finish cooling.
