Carrot Cake Sandwich Cookies

I really like carrot cake! Its always so moist and flavorful, plus i can try to fool myself into thinking its "healthy" because of the carrots and raisins! When i came across this recipe for Carrot Cake Sandwich Cookies i knew i had to give 'em a try! I followed the recipe but added a few twists: i soaked the raisins in some vanilla infused bourbon left over from Christmas Cocktails (thanks Jaron!) for a little extra flavor. And when i whipped up the cream cheese frosting i used the left over vanilla bourbon instead of vanilla extract. I also added about 1/4 tsp of salt in the frosting as well for a little contrast. The recipe says to use a small scoop for the dough but i like BIG cookies so i used a medium scoop for mine. I also cooked them long enough to really get a nice crispy edge. The cookies turned out soft and moist with that nice crunchy edge and paired perfectly with the creamy filling! Yum! It really is like a delicious mini-carrot cake. I think the Easter Bunny would love these!
