Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup loosely packed finely shredded carrots (about 2 small carrots)
1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted and cooled, plus more for cooking the pancakes
1/3 cup finely chopped pecans
4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
2 bananas
24 chocolate chips or raisins
Honey or maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F. Place a baking sheet in the oven to keep the cooked pancakes warm.
  • Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, ginger and nutmeg in a large bowl. Whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, vanilla, carrots and melted butter in a medium bowl. Whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Stir in the pecans.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and brush with melted butter. Working in batches if necessary, use about half of the batter to make 4 round pancake "bodies" (about 1/4 cup batter per pancake). Cook until the pancakes are golden on the bottom and bubbly on top, 1 to 2 minutes, then flip and cook until they golden on the second side, about 1 minute more. Place the finished pancakes in the oven on the preheated baking sheet to keep them warm. Use the remaining batter to make 4 round "bunny head" pancakes and 8 oval "bunny paw" pancakes, using about 2 tablespoons of batter per pancake. Place the finished pancakes in the oven to keep warm.
  • Mix together the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar and vanilla in a small bowl until well combined and smooth. To serve, place a large pancake in the center of each plate, then place a small round pancake at the top of each large pancake to make a "bunny head". Pipe or dollop two small dots of the cream cheese mixture at the bottom of the large pancake to attach the "feet." Pipe or dollop a bunny "tail" between each set of feet.
  • Peel and cut the top and bottom 2 inches from both bananas and cut the pieces in half lengthwise. Use the halved banana pieces to make "bunny ears". Slice the leftover pieces of banana crosswise into 8 slices total and add them to the feet. Finish the feet with 3 chocolate chips or raisins each. Serve the bunnies with honey or maple syrup on the side.

CARROT CAKE COOKIES RECIPE BY TASTY



Carrot Cake Cookies Recipe by Tasty image

A tasty twist on a classic cake! Crunchy pecans paired with chewy raisins and sweet shredded carrots make these cookies the perfect no-fork-needed dessert. And let's not forget, each cookie oozes with a delectable cream cheese filling.

Provided by Betsy Carter

Categories     Desserts

Yield 16 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 oz cream cheese, softened
1 ¾ cups powdered sugar
1 tablespoon all purpose flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon kosher salt
12 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup carrot, shredded
1 cup raisin
½ cup pecan, chopped

Steps:

  • Make the cream cheese filling: In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, flour, and vanilla. Mix with a fork until smooth.
  • Scoop 16 teaspoon-sized balls of icing onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Freeze for at least 1 hour.
  • Make the cookies: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180˚C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. (Do not use a silicone mat--if the bottoms of the cookies are too thin, the silicone will stick to the cookies and the icing centers will fall through when removed from the pan.)
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar, and beat with an electric hand mixer or whisk for 1-2 minutes, or until well combined.
  • Add the eggs, 1 at a time, then the vanilla and cinnamon and beat until combined.
  • Add the flour mixture and beat until just incorporated.
  • Fold in the carrots, raisins, and pecans with a rubber spatula.
  • Scoop 16 heaping tablespoons of dough onto 2 prepared baking sheets, spacing at least 3 inches apart. Flatten each scoop with moistened fingers.
  • Place a frozen icing ball in the center of each dough round.
  • Top the filling with another scoop of dough and use moistened fingers to flatten and seal the edges so the filling is completely encased.
  • Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the edges are light brown. Be careful not to overbake or the filling will ooze out.
  • Let the cookies cool completely. This is important! If you try to lift the cookies before they are cool and the icing is still warm, it could fall through the cookies.
  • Enjoy!
