Carrot cake cookie sandwiches are fast, easy, and delicious. I love them with a cup of coffee or a glass of milk. Believe me, your family and friends will simply love them. They are a soft cookie which I really enjoy.
Some of the ingredients are optional, such as the raisins, but they add a nice touch. You can add pecans too if you like.
