Carrot Spice Cream Cheese Cookie Sammiches and Cookie Conundrum!!!

Carrot Raisin Spice Chewies
OH MY GOD.(please imagine that in either fran drescher or janice from friends voice.even though there's not really a difference)
these rule!the school.okay,so for the past 2 years i've been positive that the vwav carrot cake is the best in the world and when i made it with toasted walnut cream cheese frosting back in june i claimed that it was the best carrot cake i've ever had,and these taste just like it,but in cookie format.
PERFECT texture.these are really chewy but not cakey,very moist.very sweet,just the way i like it,and when you bite into a nut and raisin piece it's perfect.oh and they're spiced very nicely.and the coconut is great too.wow.i think these are my favourite tests so far.i will definitely make them again.
i left them in the fridge for my brothers so i'll have their verdict tomorrow.
and i rode my bike over to my friend sian's house to put them through her cat door for her and while i was doing it she opened the door to leave and i got really scared.i'll have her opinion tomorrow too.but whatever,not like it matters,because these rule!

whole wheat chocolate chip cookies1
Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip Cookies
cakier than a normal chocolate chip cookies,but not exactly healthy tasting.still moist,and definitely more of a cookie than a muffin top.moist and textural.

Cowboy Cookies
so chewy,hearty,sweet but not cloying,mmmm.amazing cookie dough,too.

i always thought coconut was girly,though.but i guess spices and dried fruit are.though,i'm really not the person to be saying what's girly and what's not.

another cookie,but not a tester:
snickerdoodles
Snickerdoodles

Sooo glad to see you posting again!! Especially since you ALWAYS post tantalizing baked good photographs :0)

Did you know that Peanut Butter Oatmeal is my all-time favorite cookie variety?!?!??! So of COURSE those are my favorites in this post; although everything looks worthy.

Love the Tigger apple sticker :0)

This stuff looks great, especially the carrot cake cookies, carrot cake being my fave dessert. Haven't had it in a while since I was diagnosed celiac but now that I am getting the hang of alternate flour mixes, most things are convertible and baking is becoming more appealing again! Thanks for the post.

You're a cookie maniac! I think I might have to make carrot raisin spice chewies. I love that Snickerdoodle recipe!
