Gingersnaps Posted on February 6, 2008 By pamela Here’s that recipe for the best gingersnaps — well, to gingersnap lovers they are! Try ’em today… and with Nutella tomorrow or cheese and gingersnaps – yum! Yummy Gingersnaps Blend in the Kitchenaid or the Bosch mixer: 1 Cup Oil 1/2 Cup Butter 1 Cup Molasses (Can be half blackstrap and half sorghum) 2 Cups Brown Sugar 2 Eggs Blend and then mix into the above ingredients 4-1/2 Cups flour 3 tsps. Baking soda 1/2 tsp. Salt 4 tsps. ground Ginger 1/2 tsp. ground Cloves 1/2 tsp. ground Black Pepper 2 tsps. ground Cinnamon (Additional: Raw sugar for rolling cookies in before baking ) When blended well, roll into walnut size balls and then roll in raw sugar or coarse brown or white sugar and set on cookie sheet – leaving space between each cookie as these spread as they bake. Bake for 9-10 minutes at 375* We use the raw sugar because it’s thicker and looks pretty as cookies are baked. Once baked, remove from cookie sheet and place on racks to cool. Makes about 6 dozen addicting cookies Recipes

No! I have not found that Nutella!! I am thinking that it’ll just remain hidden until I go to Costco and buy another two/pack and set that second jar away from view. Maybe then I will choose that same very secret (even to me) place! This is a great recipe… especially with Azure’s blackstrap molasses. Too bad there aren’t any fresh baked cookies on the counter to go with this delicious cup of coffee! See you soon, I hope! love you too –ps
Pamela, Thank you for the recipe. I cannot wait to try it. Thank you also for all of your sweet words of encouragement…You are such a blessing! Have you found the second jar of Nutella yet? I need to know where I put mine…or maybe I’ll just go and buy another two pack… Love, C~
