Gingerbread Cookies are some of the favorite cookies to be prepared for Christmas. The spices used and molasses give an amazing flavor and the aroma while baking is amazing. Kids enjoy making them during the holiday season.
The dough is really easy to work with, and can be cut in various shapes and decorated in endless ways. This recipes uses molasses but if you don’t have it around you can also make gingerbread cookies without molasses using the recipe I’ve made for the Gingerbread Stars which is made with honey instead.
You can also use these cookies to decorate the Christmas tree or simply use them as homemade holiday gifts.
Hope you will try these impressive Gingerbread Cookies, tag me on Instagram if you do and enjoy.
