Dipped Gingersnap Cookies image

These are the best gingersnaps ever! Having never really liked crispy cookies, I "snapped" up this recipe for a soft version! There are always many requests for these and I make them every year for the holidays. These freeze well, too, so you can have some on hand for company - just let them defrost for about 30...

Categories     Cookies

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 c granulated sugar
1 1/2 c vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1/2 c molasses
4 c all purpose flour
4 tsp baking soda
1 Tbsp ground ginger
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp salt
24 oz white chocolate chips
1/4 c vegetable shortening
additional sugar for rolling dough balls

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • 2. In a large bowl, combine the sugar and oil - mix well. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in molasses until fully incorporated.
  • 3. Combine dry ingredients in a medium bowl, blending well. Add the dry ingredients gradually into the wet mixture, about a cup at a time, until well blended. If using a hand mixer, the dough gets very stiff - I wind up mixing by hand about halfway through this process...
  • 4. Form 3/4" balls and roll in the additional sugar. Place the balls about 2" apart on a lightly greased cookie sheet to allow for spreading. I flatten them slightly.
  • 5. Bake for 10 - 12 minutes or until the cookies spring back when touched lightly. Remove to wire racks and cool completely.
  • 6. Melt the white chocolate chips with shortening in a small saucepan over low heat. Dip the cooled cookies into the melted chocolate to cover half. Place dipped cookies on a sheet of wax paper or parchment to allow the chocolate to set up.

These cookies are delicious, but they're a bit too sweet for my taste. I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out dry and crumbly. I'm going to try again with a different recipe.

These cookies are a bit time-consuming to make, but they're definitely worth the effort. The dough is a little sticky, so be sure to chill it before rolling it out.
