This year, I was trying to opt for soft gingerbread cookies, as my son just had his braces put on and can't have anything too crunchy-and what would ruin the holiday mood than biting into one of your favorite cookies and damaging your braces/teeth?! I found this recipe and wanted to try it...WOW! We JUST finished baking these for the first time about 20 minutes ago and my family is already hooked! What a great recipe!

These are great! Easy to make and perfect served warm with a cold glass of milk. Perfect for the holidays.....the spices really set the mood for the coming cold weather.

I have made this recipe at least a dozen times and the cookies come out perfect every time. The only change I make is to use 1 full teaspoon of cinnamon. My family and co-worker love them and request them often. Also, they are so simple to make!

The cookies were delicious, soft and full of flavor. Both my husband and I loved them. The only reason I didn't give the recipe five stars is because it says this recipe should make 2 1/2 dozen but I made it too the letter (1 1/2 balls for the dough) and it only made 19 cookies. I would double the recipe.

Last Christmas starting December first, my family and I decided that we wanted to make a different kind of cookie every day for the whole month of December. Well, we needed cookie recipes so I decided to look on tasteofhome, and stumbled upon this recipe. We absolutely love these cookies, they are amazing, the molasses and ginger blend very well together and just like the title, they are big and soft! We make these all the time, my brother had some friends over and said that they wanted cookies so I decided to make these for them, and they ate the WHOLE batch! One his friends said that they were the best cookies he ever tried. Would definitely recommend making these cookies for any occasion. Happy Baking!

Delicious! I made the cookies a little smaller than the recipe said and cooked them for about 9 mins. Made 48 cookies... smaller ones are perfect as a snack or to give with a thank you note. The smaller ones are a tad bit crunchier on the outside, but still have a soft center.

Big Soft Ginger Cookies says it all. I decided to dip them in white chocolate after they cooled. They are wonderful. I will be adding them to my Christmas Cookies this year. Very Pretty

Easy and delicious. I rolled mine in raw sugar and it made them look nice and gave them a little sugary crunch.

Delicious. Would definitely make again!! I added raisins, about 1/2 cup and reduced the sugar to 3/4 cup. Worked very well.
