Recipe Box Swap - Giant Ginger Cookies April 30, 2008

Filed under: Holidays, I'm a Foodie! — minnesotamom @ 11:11 pm

I made this post back when these cookies were in season, but…my mom also used to make similar cookies for boat trips in the summer. And oh. so. delicious. This recipe (linked here) is a step up or two from hers (no offense mom). They’re chewy and gingery-molassesy and just…well, just bake them!

And be sure to check out the rest of the yummy bar and cookie recipes at Randi’s Recipe Box Swap!

    Mmm, they sound great–I’m definitely going to try these. And it is my firm belief that Ginger cookies are NEVER out of season.

    That is basically my recipe except for a little more ginger and molasses and mine were soft and chewy! Sound great, wish I could have some!

    These sound close to my Molasses cookie recipe. I love when they are soft and chewy in the middle. I don’t think these are ever out of season, although I do tend to think about them in the fall.

    Look out everyone! My mom has learned how to comment!

    Mom, they are very similar to yours, just bigger and 4x the ginger. I bet there’s a gluten-free recipe for some…shall we try them next time you’re in town?

    I love a reason to get out my molasses. Just something about it. So dark and homey or something.
