I make several kinds: cookies that are almost cake-like, gingersnaps and gingerbread people.</p> <p>Shannon, I loved reading your story. What a nice tradition! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-gingerbread-cookies#post-489080 Fri, 16 Dec 2011 00:53:42 +0000 Transcona Shannon 489080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This post just made me smile Khris - gingerbread have a HUGE tradition in my family. My great grandmother started it when she first got married. Because they didn't have much money, my great grandmother would bake a gingerbread man for each member of the family, decorate it to look like the person who was receiving it, and then give them as gifts. When she no longer could make the cookies, she passed the tradition to my grandmother, who eventually passed it to my mother, who last year passed it to me. It's a lot of work and takes hours and hours, and I wouldn't want it any other way. And it doesn't matter how old we become, it isn't Christmas until you receive your gingerbread man. I don't have a daughter (only one son) so I hope he marries someone who is willing to take it on when I'm done!</p> <p>Your cookies are beautiful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-gingerbread-cookies#post-489074 Fri, 16 Dec 2011 00:42:54 +0000 Beth 489074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Khris!</p> <p>Gingerbread cookies make me weak in the knees. YUM. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-gingerbread-cookies#post-488926 Thu, 15 Dec 2011 21:35:56 +0000 Kate 488926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>super cute! I LOVE gingerbread!</p> <p>Also, when I first saw Santa I only noticed the rosy cheek on the left and thought he was crying! hahaha! ...it's finals week and I apparently need a lot more sleep (and cookies) in my life! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-gingerbread-cookies#post-488823 Thu, 15 Dec 2011 19:00:32 +0000 Emily 488823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Adorable! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-gingerbread-cookies#post-488807 Thu, 15 Dec 2011 18:39:11 +0000 chewyspaghetti 488807@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I kept seeing them in commercials on TV and had to make some Gingerbread cookies for a holiday get together this weekend. This recipe from Food Network has a nice spicy flavor, and a crisp crust:</p> <p><a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/gingerbread-cookies-101-recipe/index.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.foodnetwork.com/rec.....index.html</a></p> <p>and the icing tubes from Betty Crocker work well and taste good.</p> <p>Hope this helps someone else out with their holiday baking! </p>
