Carrot Cake Cookie Sandwich

If you were a Disney’s Hollywood Studios attendee back in the heyday of its focus on Golden Era movies and the film industry, you might remember a little place called the Writer’s Stop. The bookstore was also home to coffee and treats, before it became the BaseLine Tap House. One of the most famous bakery items was the incredible Carrot Cake Cookie Sandwich. And, while you still can find it at the Trolley Car Cafe, it’s not the same recipe that used to be at the Writer’s Stop. But, don’t worry — we’ve got the original to share with you!

1. Start by making the Carrot Cake recipe listed on the back of the standard cake mix box. Preheat your oven to 350 °F and grease a cookie sheet.

4. Remove them from the oven once they’ve been baked and set aside to cool.

6. Drain crushed pineapple in the sifter over the sink before adding it and the vanilla extract to the rest of the ingredients in the bowl.

7. Blend the ingredients together until the frosting is creamy. Place a tablespoon (or more!) of icing on each cookie and sandwich them together.
