A very soft cake-like cookie. A great way to get carrots into my Dad's diet; sure he is not the only one who needs a little help that way. Wish I could tell you where I got this, but...Dad never knew there were carrots in his cookies. Ingredients:
1 cup mashed cooked carrot |
3/4 cup sugar |
1 cup shortening (part margarine) |
2 large eggs |
2 cups flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup coconut |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 400°. 2. Mix carrots, sugar shortening and eggs. 3. Stir in flour, baking powder and salt. 4. Stir in coconut. 5. Drop by teaspoon about 2-inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. 6. Bake until almost no indentation remains when touched, about 8 minutes. 7. Remove from cookie sheet and cool on wire rack. |
