Trader Joe’s Inside Out Carrot Cake Cookies
Trader Joe's Inside Out Carrot Cake Cookies
Here is an incredible new find (well, at least to us) from Trader Joe’s- Inside Out Carrot Cake Cookes!
We found these yummy treats in the bakery area near all the breads and muffins. We both were so surprised to see these treats!
We both love carrot cake- The spicy cake part and all those sweet raisins and bits of carrot. And what can we say about cream cheese frosting! Eeks! Just delicious.
Now truthfully, we don’t usually take the time to make a carrot cake just on a random whim. Too much time, energy, special ingredients and then the results: who wants to be at home with a carrot cake?
Carrot Cake cookies- Up close!
So we were delighted to see these cookies at Trader Joe’s. The cookies are similar to a Whoopee Pie, with two soft cookies that are “glued” together with a frosting center. In this case the cookies are made from yummy carrot cake batter, with big raisins and long strings of carrot in the spicy dough. In the center these cookies have a thick layer of rich delicious cream cheese frosting. WOW!!
Just so you know, these cookies are BIG and rich and Sweet- simply wonderful. We enjoyed them with a strong cup of black tea (Trader Joe’s of course) and savored every last crumb…

So glad you like these cookies!! We just LOVE them…. We wrap each in plastic wrap and freeze them for a frozen treat…. of course it is Tucson….. Cheers! Kris
Three little words: LOVE, LOVE, LOVED these cookies!!! Running out tonight to buy some!
These were SOOOOO good! I could not be home alone with another package!! Kris
Did TJ’s discontinue these? Cant find them in NY/NJ. WHYYYY?
We just saw them at our Trader Joe’s. But there was only one box left.
these cookies are unbelievably good, an dangerous =)
Yes! we totally agree!! They really work when you have a carrot cake craving but don’t want to be home alone with a whole carrot cake. Cheers!

A co-worker brought them in to share. I can’t wait to leave work to pick up my own. Im in trouble.
We agree! These are so good 🙂
Apparently these cookies were discontinued in the Federal Way, WA and Silverdale, WA stores on July 28th, 2013. I buy 4-6 packages at a time and keep the extra packages in the freezer so my elderly Dad can have his beloved carrot cake cookie every morning. I just broke the news to him that they’re discontinued and he asked me what we’re going to do now. Please, please tell me that they will be back!!!!!

I LOVE those cookies too! Keep asking the folks at your local store where they are getting the cookies ~ maybe a bakery near you can make them for you?? Good Luck~ Kristin
Has anyone tried freezing these beauties for later use?
I have not tried to freeze them – but I would guess they would do fine in the freezer if you wrapped them up well… That is until someone else finds out 🙂 Cheers! Kristin
I purchased these at the Winston-Salem, NC store over the weekend, so they weren’t discontinued in this part of the country at least. They were delicious!!!!
Good to know- Thanks!
And only 300 calories per cookie!!
Right? I still LOVE these ….
