These cookies contain the yummy ingredients of gingerbread: cinnamon, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, dark brown sugar and molasses.
The flavors are very fall and gingery. I love ginger so they weren't strong to me, but some people thought they were a bit too gingery (as if that could ever happen! :) It has both ground ginger and fresh ginger.
I rolled them in a combo of granulated sugar and sanding sugar. I just purchased Sugar in the Raw so I want to try that next time.
Find the recipe for these fall and intense cookies here on Martha Stewart's website!
Mmmmm...these look so good!! Perfect for this time of year. I'm not really crazy about fresh ginger, but I still might give 'em a try without it. Thanks for making me want these NOW!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love gingerbread. I just bought some molasses and plan to make some. Maybe I will do these instead. They look great.
ReplyDeleteYour cookies look fabulous! I love spicy foods in general, so I'll have to give these a try.
ReplyDeleteI bought her cookie cookbook a few months ago and I drooled as I turned every page.
ReplyDeleteI really want to make these becaue their texture looks SO good, but I have to admit, I'm not a fan of ginger. Do you think I could substitute with a different ingredient? Oh, and I LOVE sugar in the raw, especially over fresh strawberries.
yummy these look really nice.
ReplyDeleteI love gingerbread - it's definitely a weakness for me around the holidays!
ReplyDeleteThese look so good! I'm always looking for a yummy ginger cookie recipe and this looks perfect.
ReplyDeleteI love fresh ginger-any form of ginger, as a matter of fact. I will try these-they look awesome.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite holiday cookie recipes is a chocolate gingerbread one from martha. soooo good
ReplyDeleteI really want to find the perfect ginger cookie recipe (soft and not too molasses-y) so maybe I should try these out. They look delicious!
ReplyDeletei am preparing cookies for corporate gifts; and as i prepared these...i was looking for - eggs!
ReplyDeletei took a guess and threw one in, at the end after everything is already mixed. i hope it works. other than that, i like the addition of cocoa.
mine tasted good. except for the nasty aftertaste of Baking soda. ew!!! what did i do wrong?
ReplyDeleteI think the baking soda must be a typo- 2 TABLESPOONS is alot! I used it anyway cuz I thought it had something special to do with the texture, but they really do have a nasty aftertaste. I think they meant 2 teaspoons!
ReplyDeleteYUMMY YUMMY COOKIES !!!
