How to shape the carrot cake oatmeal cookies?

From my experiment, this cookie dough is flexible enough to roll into balls then flatten on cookie sheet. Alternatively, it is sturdy enough that you can roll it into a log. From there you can refrigerate for 30 mins or freeze for 5-10 mins, then cut the log into cookies!
