COCONUT CARROT CAKE NO-BAKE COOKIES WITH PINEAPPLE CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
These no-bake cookies are naturally gluten-free, grain-free and vegetarian, and they are easily made vegan with a vegan cream cheese. The best part? Built-in portion control. You can make a big batch, then store the cookies in the refrigerator for up to three days, or store them in the freezer for even longer -the cream cheese frosting will be a little hard, but still absolutely delicious.

Steps:
- Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, a Silpat or parchment paper, and set aside.
- Cut the carrots into large pieces and place them in a food processor fitted with the chopping disc. Pulse the carrots until finely chopped. Add the pecans, cashews, coconut, almond butter, cinnamon, ginger, salt, 2 tablespoons maple syrup and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Process until the mixture is well-combined, scraping the sides of the food processor as necessary. The mixture should be moist but not runny, and it will be ready when it starts to pull away from the sides of the food processor bowl and form a ball.
- Using clean hands, form the dough into 15 equally shaped balls, approximately 1 1/4 inches in diameter. Place the balls on the lined baking sheet, then use your thumb to flatten with an indentation.
- Prepare the frosting in a mixing bowl by combining the cream cheese and pineapple juice with the remaining 2 teaspoons maple syrup and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat with a hand mixer until creamy. Top each cookie with a spoonful of frosting, then sprinkle with additional shredded coconut if using. Place cookies in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours before serving, or in the freezer for 15 minutes. The cookies may be stored in the refrigerator or freezer.

Steps:
- Position rack in center of oven; preheat to 350°F. Spread shredded coconut in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet and toast until golden brown and aromatic, 3-5 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes.

Steps:
- For the carrot-coconut birthday cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray three 9-inch round cake pans with cooking spray and lightly coat them with coconut flour.
- In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix together the coconut oil, coconut sugar, honey and eggs until creamy. (Don't worry if the mixture looks broken; the batter will become smooth as you add more ingredients.)
- In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut flour, oat flour, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, ground ginger and baking powder. Add half of the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until evenly incorporated. On low speed, mix in the coconut milk until combined and then gradually add the remaining half of the dry ingredients. Turn the machine off and scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure all the ingredients are incorporated. Fold in the carrots and applesauce. Divide the batter among the prepared cake pans.
- Bake until the cakes begin to pull away from the sides of the pans and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 25 minutes. Let cool in the pans for 10 minutes.
- Run a paring knife around the edge of the pans and then invert the cakes onto 2 racks. Let cool completely. (Do not move the cakes around too much; they are delicate.)
- For the coconut cream cheese frosting: In a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip the cream cheese, honey, powdered sugar and coconut cream on high speed until fluffy and evenly incorporated.
- To assemble the cake: Place one cake layer on a 10-inch (or larger) cake stand. Scoop a quarter of the frosting on top and spread it to the edges. Stack another cake layer on top and spread with another quarter of the frosting. Stack the third cake layer and spread a third quarter of the frosting around the entire cake to serve as a crumb coat.
- Refrigerate the cake for at least 30 minutes before frosting the entire cake with the remaining frosting. Sprinkle the coconut flakes over the top.
