GINGERSNAP COOKIES



Gingersnap Cookies image

I was following my mother's recipe for ginger snaps and realized I had used the wrong ingredients right away, so rather than throwing it out and starting over, I made my own recipe, and they turned out even better. I just had to share my 'mistake' with you all because I can't believe how good these are. They turned out so delicious, moist, and chewy. I hope you enjoy them.

Tips:

  • Use fresh peanut butter: Fresh peanut butter will give your cookies a richer, more flavorful taste. Avoid using natural peanut butter, as it is too oily and will make your cookies greasy.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cookies to hold their shape better and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: The cookies should be slightly soft in the center when you take them out of the oven. They will continue to firm up as they cool.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting to set properly and prevent it from melting.

Conclusion:

These peanut butter gingersnap cookies are a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be decorated with your favorite holiday sprinkles. Whether you are baking them for a Christmas cookie exchange or just to enjoy with your family, these cookies are sure to be a hit.
