These were SO tasty. We added raisins like some of the other reviews suggested but kept everything else the same. My husband had to stop me from eating all the cookie dough--two days in a row!

these are good, but there is room for improvement. I think adding more peanut butter and less oats would help.

Overall, a good cookie. I think it needs a little more flour or oats, the cookie fell apart quite easily. After i made the first batch I added more flour and they turned out much better. Still soft and moist. I also don't recommend cutting the sugar back. I also tried it that way, it tasted more like a biscuit to me. I do plan on making these again! Who knew, carrots in a cookie is pretty tasty!

Mmmmm, delicious! I absolutely love these kinds of fruity oatmeal cookies and this recipe was no exception. I've made this one several times and it always has turned out soft, moist and flavorful. The only changes I make is that I decrease the amount of butter and sometimes I add a grated apple into the cookie dough. Wonderful! Five stars. Thanks, Marilyn!

This is a pretty good recipe. I've had better. I wont make it again. There are some really bad cookie recipies out there, this is not one of them. If I didn't know better or have better recipes, I probably would have given this 5 stars. The texture is a bit moist after baking. I prefer my cookies to be crisp on the outside & chewy in the middle. I suppose you could play around with this, but then it really isn't the recipe is it? At least you can get your kids to eat a bit of carrot. I would say it's worth trying out since we all have different tastes. You just might love them.

These cookies are a great way to use up some carrots. Following Cooks Illustrated guidelines on leavening, I added 3/4 tsp baking powder. Also added 1 tsp vanilla. Used two cups of chocolate chips. Also, be sure to cook for less time - 12 minutes was plenty.

We loved these cookies. These were a great combination. And they were still moist the day after!

These cookies were very good. Though I would say that for me 15 minutes was too long to bake them for. I found 8-10 minutes was sufficient. Thanks.

I took the advice of other reviewers and cut the white sugar down to 1/2 C and used wheat flour - we didn't think it was sweet enough for us. However I didn't have any chocolate chips so that probably would have helped! I really like the idea of these cookies though, so next time I'll get some dark chocolate and chunk it up to put in there.

I really did enjoy these. I reduced the sugar and added cinnamon and vanilla like some others. I ended up giving some away to stop eating them. I hate grating carrots tho, and I am one of those people who like to throw ingredients in the bowl and mix. The only reason it didn't get 5 stars.

Very good, yet not quite great. I didn't use any chocolate chips because I didn't have any but I firmly believe that they will make the recipe better. They need the sweetness that only chocolate can add! I will make these again and play around with the recipe a bit.

Wow these were good. As other reviewers suggested, I reduced the amount of sugar and used whole wheat flour. I also used reduced fat butter, replaced the egg with 1T cornstarch and 1T water, and used reduced fat crunchy peanut butter. Excellent and healthy cookies! Next time I will probably reduce the sugar a bit more and leave out the chocolate chips (or maybe do a half batch with the chocolate - hubby is a chocolate fiend!). For my tastebuds, the chocolate overpowered the other flavors a bit. I might also add a bit of wheat germ to give them even more crunch! Hubby was skeptical at first but said that if he hadn't seen me put the carrots in, he wouldn't have known they were there (from the taste :)). Thank you for this recipe!

These cookies came out so awesome. Was out of brown sugar, so I used turbinado (raw sugar) instead. We will definitely make these again!

As some have suggested, I used whole wheat flour, added just a bit of cinnamon and vanilla, omitted the chocolate chips and reduced the sugar to 1/2 cup. They were very tasty and interesting but too moist, they just fell apart. I'm not sure what I did wrong but I might try it again sometime. I thought the peanutbutter flavor is kind of hidden and I'd more likely call these oatmeal carrot cookies.

These cookies taste great and you feel somewhat healthy eating them. I used the suggestions of several other reviewers - decreased white sugar to 1/2c and used whole wheat flour. I'd like to try them with raisins and/or cinnamon. My only complaint... I ate too much of the cookie dough!
