Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 375. Grease two baking sheets.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt. In a large bowl, mix together the applesauce, honey, egg, and vanilla. Add the 1 cup carrots, oats, and flour mixture to the large bowl. Mix well.
  3. Put a spoonful of batter on the baking sheet. Shape the batter into a long triangle for the carrot. Shape leaves from the batter at the end of the carrot. Flatten the cookie. Make more carrot-shaped cookies with the remaining batter. Bake 14 minutes. Let cool.
  4. To make the frosting, mix the cream cheese, honey, and vanilla together in a bowl. Divide the mixture into two bowls. Put 3/4th of the mixture into one bowl and 1/4th of the mixture into the other bowl. Add the carrot juice to the bowl with 3/4th of the cream cheese mixture. Add the liquid chlorophyll to the other bowl. Stir both bowls.
  5. Put the green frosting in a plastic bag. Cut off the corner of the bag. Frost the leaves. Put the orange frosting in a plastic bag. Cut off the corner of the bag. Frost the carrots. Optional: top the orange frosting with the 1/2 cup shredded carrots.
  6. Chill the cookies for 10 minutes.
