For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of nutmeg or cinnamon to the dough. Be sure to let the cooked carrots cool completely before adding them to the dough to prevent the shortening from melting. These cookies are best enjoyed fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
