Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Cookie scoop

Ingredients

  • 1 box carrot cake mix
  • 2 large eggs
  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil
  • ½ cup shredded carrots
  • ⅓ cup chopped walnuts

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 350°F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  • Combine cake mix, eggs, and oil in a mixing bowl until a thick batter forms.
  • Stir in shredded carrots and walnuts until evenly distributed.
  • Portion dough onto tray, spacing cookies apart.
  • Bake for about 10 minutes until edges look set but centers remain soft.
  • Let cookies sit on tray briefly before moving to a cooling rack.

Notes

  • Slightly underbaking keeps cookies soft.
  • Dough should be thick, not runny.
  • Chill dough if cookies spread too much.
  • Fresh carrots improve texture and moisture.
