Ginger Snaps
I have become completely addicted to ginger snap cookies. When the notion of baking my own rather than buying a bag crossed my mind I felt a need to make my own. After searching recipes online I determined I could totally make them, once I bought some molasses.
Tonight, since nothing good was on TV I made them! I followed this recipe and they turned out quite well. Although, she mentions: “Refrigerate until ready to bake” really she means, refrigerate before baking. If the dough is too soft and sticky you can’t roll it into balls. So be sure to chill the dough so you can roll it into balls. I don’t have any coarse ground sugar, I used regular sugar. And the first batch I dredged in cinnamon/sugar and that was very tasty, but you don’t get the pretty granules like you would with coarse ground sugar. Now I get to have ginger snap cookies whenever I want without having to go buy a bag! HUZZAH!
