Chocolate Gingerbread Men image

I have made these delicious cookies for almost 10 years at Christmas. The chocolate and gingerbread flavors blend nicely and the dough bakes up chewy. They are cookie cutter cookies so you can make shapes with the dough. I always use the gingerbread man cutter and I never decorate them but that is an option. Children of all ages...

These gingerbread men were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I might use less sugar next time.

These gingerbread men were a disappointment. They were too dry and crumbly. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

These gingerbread men were a little dry, but they were still good. I think I might add a little more butter or molasses next time to make them more moist.

These gingerbread men were a little too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. He said they were the best gingerbread men he's ever had. I think I'll try making them again with less ginger next time.
