For a richer flavor, toast the shredded coconut lightly before adding it to the cookie dough. Ensure the butter is properly softened for both the cookies and the frosting; this will help prevent a lumpy texture. Mashed carrots should be cooled before incorporating into the batter to prevent the butter from melting. Store frosted cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
