I have made these cookies for several events now and everyone seems to like them, especially since they are soft. I substituted sorghum for the molasses and used a little more than the 1/4 cup called for in the recipe.

These cookies were good but I like my moms gingersnap cookie recipe better.

These cookies are SOOOO good and very easy to make. The house smells great while they are baking and the mild flavor is wonderful. Not over powering.

Awsome gingersnap! These were very soft and had a mild molasses flavor. I only used 1/4 tsp cloves but otherwise kept the rest of the ingredients the same. I like dense, chewy cookies, so when I took them out of the oven I dropped the baking pan onto the cooling rack a couple times from about 6 iches high to purposely make them fall. I will be making these every year!

these are the perfect gingerbread cookie. Wonderful buttery and spicy taste. I love the chewy texture. I will make them again and again.

The taste of these cookies is excellent. My only problem, is that my cookies turned out flat? They were puffed up until I took them out of the oven to cool 1 minute. Then they immediately fell, and were flat. Any ideas why this happens?

Delicious! These gingersnaps were soft and chewy. My family loved them. They were easy to make as well.
