These are good! Taste-wise, they are very nice. But somehow, the texture of these cookies aren't really as what I was expecting. They were too 'cakey'. I increased around 10 minutes of the baking time to harden them a bit. But yeah, like I said, those cookies are goooood. Thanks!

    These have always been a hit at my house and an excellent way to use the carrot "pulp" after juicing. This time around, I added chopped walnuts and cinnamon chips. Mmmmmmm!

    These were good, reminded me of a cake doughnut. I discovered an easy way to make the grated orange peel --Used paring knife to cut off pieces of orange peel, put them in food processor, added the egg and 1/3 cup of the flour and gave it a spin until orange bits were small enough, then added it to sugar/butter mixture. These cookies and my carrot cookies are very different in texture and flavor

    I couldn't wait to try these and right enough I ended up making them today. I substituted the orange rind with 2 tbsps. of orange essence and these are for sure " YUMMMMMMMMMMY "! I really enjoyed having them this evening with some tea. Thank you for this easy and nutritious cookie. I also made some of these with a little(2-3 drops) food colour. I used pink and green food colours and hence, I made what I've most happily called "Stained carrot cookies".
