Instructions: Heat oven to 350F. In a large bowl beat sugar and margarine until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and egg; blend well. Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup; level off. Stir in flour and baking powder; mix well. Stir in carrots, walnuts and raisins. Drop dough by teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Remove from cookie sheets; cool completely. In a small bowl, combine powdered sugar, orange peel and enough orange juice for desired consistancy; mix well. Frost cooled cookies.

Yield 3 1/2 dozen.

NOTES : This is a "cake" like cookie, that has wonderful flavor. A great way to get kids to eat carrots. They taste more like the orange frosting.

My kids love them.
