My daughter chose this as her first try at cutout cookies and a first attempt at gingerbread for us both. The dough was easy to work with, easy to cutout and kept a pretty good shape when baking. They taste very good and most important, they stay nice and soft!! Friends enjoyed them too. They made next year's list for our Christmas cookie bake-a-thon!

I made this as a drop cookie and it turned out rich in flavor, soft, and absolutely perfect! I only had to bake them closer to 15 minutes because the dough was very thick. I will def make these again.

Used melted white chocolate chips for "icing" and dusted very lightly with powdered sugar. Beautiful! Great alternative to sugar cookies for cut-out cookie recipe.

I made these last year but put buttercream frostin between and made them like a cookie sandwich. They were a big hit. I'm making them again this Christmas to give to friends.

These were good cookies. I think I like the traditional taste, though. These are great and everyone liked them. Give them a try.
