**December 2016 Cookie Swap**

OMG! I loved these cookies! They reminded me of an old fashioned gingerbread cookie, but they’re soft inside. What I liked about them is that they puffed up and held their shape when baked. Wish I would have cut into gingerbread men. I used a mix of cinnamon. ginger and a pinch of cloves. The dough was very soft with the consistency of a drop cookie. I didn’t want to add more flour so I refrigerated overnight and they were firm by morning. I couldn’t find Crosby’s Fancy Molasses and had to go with what they had in the store, so maybe that’s the reason for the dough not being stiff. I shaped into balls, rolled in sugar, and patted to 1cm thick. I needed some color on the cookie tray so I drizzled with a glaze (powdered sugar, butter, and Kahlua) and sprinkled with green crystal sugar. Couldn’t wait to have one this morning with my morning coffee. Thank you, Eastcoaster! Another fabulous recipe!
