Big Soft Ginger Cookies..pinned it and tried it



Here's another delicious recipe I pinned and tried. They were one of the best cookies I have ever made!

They were big, soft, and a bit chewy in the center. Absolutely perfect, except for one thing.

No crinkles!

The picture had some lovely sugar sprinkles with nice crackles on top of the cookies. For some reason, the sugar melted into the cookie and there was not one cookie that had a crinkle.

But they were SO good I guess it didn't really matter!

Yum, yum! I love cookies with molasses in them. These look perfect. Probably a good thing they're not sitting in front of me right now. lol

I have butter softening for these right now. Just got my recipe from Lorna Cunningham yesterday while I
visited her. Guess we are all hungry for molasses at this time of year.
