I have made 12 doz already this week! We modified it for the non-holiday season. I use a 1" cookie scoop and then flatten the cookies slightly with the bottom of a drinking glass. Bake for 5 minutes in a convection oven or until cookies start to "crack." We then use one dollop of milk chocolate frosting on top! Our local bakery is famous for their gingerbread boys with chocolate frosting. My sons say these taste even better!

These came out great! I have to bake them on a airbake sheet otherwise they burn. They were easy to make and yummy!

Fuss free recipe! Made several thicknesses and enjoyed the thicker ones which were softer and chewier. FAST and easy preparation!

These were nice, you definitely get more of a spicy cookie than a gingerbread taste. They are easy and quick to roll out, a good time saver cookie.
