These cookies were wonderful!! I did add a little nutmeg and cardamom powder. I also did not frost the cookies, I figured I could eat more :) I also just put the walnuts in the batter. The cookies were so moist and soft. They really do taste like a piece of carrot cake. Thank you for a great recipe!!

These were so simple and I added pecans to my batch and they turned out so delicious! I didn't make the frosting, I bought it already made...same difference. I will be making these again!
