2 cups quick or old-fashioned oats
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
4 Tbsp. Promise® Buttery Spread
2 Tbsp. Neufchatel or 1/3 less fat cream cheese, softened

Directions
Combine oats, flour, baking soda and salt in medium bowl; set aside.
Beat Promise® Buttery Spread, cream cheese and brown sugar in large bowl with electric mixer until creamy, about 3 minutes. Beat in egg, yogurt and vanilla until blended. Gradually beat in oat mixture just until blended. Stir in raisins and carrot.
Turn dough onto waxed paper and form into four 7-inch-long logs. Wrap tightly and freeze 2 hours or until firm.
Preheat oven to 375°. For 2 servings, slice off four 1-inch rounds from log, then refreeze remaining dough until ready to bake. Arrange frozen cookie slices on baking sheet. Let stand 10 minutes. Bake 8 minutes or until edges are golden and centers are set. Cool 2 minutes on wire rack; remove from sheet and cool completely.
TIP: Need more cookies? Slice, then bake as many as you need using the above directions.
