Ginger Snaps

December 21, 2010 by Linda @ Linda's Lunacy 4 Comments

The other day, I made gingersnaps for the first time. Here’s the recipe I used from an old cookbook. Of course, I didn’t follow the recipe exactly. 🙂

 

Ginger Snaps


2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup butter, softened (you could use shortening if you wanted)
1/4 cup molasses
1 egg
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 cup white sugar, for rolling cookies in

 

In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup flour with the remain ingredients, except for white sugar. Beat well. Stir in remaining flour.

 

Shape dougn into 1 inch balls. Roll balls in white sugar to coat. Place balls on ungreased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake at 375* for 8-10 minutes or until edges are set and tops are crackled. Cool cookies on cookie sheet for 1 minute, then transfer to wire rack and let cool. Makes about 48 cookies. I actually only got 36 cookies, I must have made mine bigger.

 

 

 

See how good the cookies are? I arranged them on the plate,nice and pretty like. Then I went to get my camera. When I returned with said camera, this is what I found! Proof that the cookies are good! One of my kids, I still haven’t figured out who, couldn’t resist them. Now, to make a cup of tea to go with my ginger snaps!

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 3:16-17 NKJV
