While my carrot cookies are baking, I start to make the Orange Icing.
Cream butter and sugar together.
Add orange juice and rind.
Spread over slightly cooled cookies. Now you’re ready to enjoy. I have a hard time waiting once I see that icing melting over the tops of those cookies.
I thought these Carrot Cookies with Orange Icing looked so pretty on the Garden Party Dessert Plates. I plan on taking these to a family party and thought this is the perfect way to display them. I hope you enjoy these cookies as much as we do.
