Gingerbread Cookie Mix & Ginger Snap Cookies
If you like gingerbread, here are two different recipes for you to try. One is a ginger snap cookie recipe, and the other is a gingerbread cookie mix in a jar. The recipe in a jar makes a great gift, and not just for Christmas. You can use these for wedding favors, hostess gifts, baby showers or for cookie exchanges.
Gingerbread Cookie Mix
Ingredients to layer in the jar: 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 cup packed brown sugar 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons ground ginger 1 teaspoon ground cloves 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon ground allspice
Mix 2 cups of the flour with the baking soda and baking powder. Then mix the remaining 1 1/2 cups flour with the spices.
In a one-quart, wide-mouth canning jar. Layer the ingredients starting with the flour baking powder mixture then the brown sugar and finally the flour and spice mixture. Use the bottom of a small clean juice glass and press each layer firmly in place. Store in a cool dry place away from a heat source so condensation and clumping does not occur. If you are giving this as a gift, write the following instructions on a card and attach to the jar:
Gingerbread Cookies
1. Empty contents of jar into a large mixing bowl. Blend together well. 2. Add 1/2 cup softened butter or margarine, 3/4 cup molasses and 1 slightly beaten egg. Mix until completely blended. Dough will be very stiff so you may need to use your hands. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. 3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). 4. Roll dough to 1/4 inch thick on a lightly floured surface. Cut into shapes with a cookie cutter. Place cookies on a lightly greased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. 5. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 10 to 12 minutes. Decorate as desired.
.........................
Ginger Snap Cookies You will need the following ingredients to make these cookies:
1 cup packed dark brown sugar 3/4 cup sugar 1/4 cup molasses 1/4 cup shortening 1 tablespoon butter, softened 1 egg 1/2 teaspoon vanilla 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking soda 2 teaspoons ground ginger 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves 1/4 cup water
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Cream together the sugars, molasses, shortening, butter, egg, and vanilla in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth. In another large bowl combine the flour, baking soda, ginger, salt, cinnamon, and cloves. Pour the dry mixture into the wet mixture and beat while adding the water. Continue to mix until the ingredients are mixed together. Measure a heaping teaspoon of dough at time. Roll the dough into a sphere between the palms of your hands then press the dough onto the cookie sheet. Flatten to about 1/8-inch thick. You can also roll this dough out and cut out shapes. Bake cookies for 10-14 minutes or until edges begin to brown and cookies are crispy when cool. Makes 120 (10 dozen) cookies.
