It's the holiday season, and that means cookies!
This evening I tried a molasses cutout cookie recipe that I found in the local paper. Every year our paper runs a feature of reader-submitted holiday cookies, and this year it had a bunch of things that sounded good. This was our house's first foray into cookies for the year, and so far, it promises to be a merry Christmas, indeed!
The cookies are kind of ginger-snappy in their flavor, but with a distinct molasses flavor backing them up. I frosted most of them with a simple vanilla sugar frosting, but my wife insisted that I leave a few of them plain, because she likes them on their own.
One mistake, I crowded my cookie sheet a little, so a few of them a a little rough around the edges where they expanded into one another. Next time, I'll use two sheets.
