These soft and sweet CarrotCake Mix Cookies taste just like real carrot cake, which is one of my favorite cakes! The fragrant, warm spices combined with the pillowy soft cookie topped with tangy cream cheese frosting just makes you want a second (or third) cookie! You won’t look at a box of cake mix the same way again!

Ingredients
1boxcarrot cake mix15.25 ounces
½cupvegetable oil
2eggsroom temperature
16ouncescream cheese frosting
orange sprinkles
Instructions
Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
Mix the cake mix, oil,and eggs in a mixing bowl until the batter is well blended.
Scoop about two tablespoons of the dough into balls and place them onto the sheet pan, making sure to leave room in between each cookie.
Bake at 350° for 9-11 minutes. You don’t want the cookies to get golden. If you see them starting to get color on the edges, remove them from the oven.
Allow the cookies to cool right on the sheet pan for five minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.
Spread the frosting onto the cookies and top with the sprinkles.
You can store them in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to four days for maximum freshness.
Notes
You can trade the oil for melted butter to give you a slightly chewier cookie.
If you would like to make a bar-style, press it into a greased small baking pan. Then bake for 20-25 minutes until it’s cooked through
