oh, pinterest, you let me down… i’ve been thinking a lot about carrot cake this week, and all desserts containing carrots. i found some pictures on pinterest that looked downright naughty, they looked so tasty. i gathered ingredients and got to work on some carrot cake cookies. don’t they sound dreamy??

they look like they have potential…
i tried a batch in muffin tins so they’d keep a nice round shape to make cream cheese frosting sandwiches. i did another batch on a cookie sheet, and odearlord they s p r e a d out all over the place into one giant cookie. so yeah. i know my way around a kitchen, i followed the recipe to the letter and this one just didn’t pan out… a little bland, kinda a mess and a big disappointment. guess i’ll have to keep trying.

the cream cheese frosting is a keeper, though!







This is how I felt about the 2 ingredient pumpkin cupcakes. The looked and sounded great… but I just didn’t like them.
