It wouldn’t be Christmas without Gingersnap Cookies! This easy recipe makes soft, chewy Gingersnap Cookies flavored with rich, warm, cinnamon, cloves, and ginger, and sweetened with brown sugar and molasses. Each one is rolled in sugar before baking into a tender cookie with that classic crackle on top. Drizzle with white chocolate and you have the perfect Christmas cookie!
We’re so excited to be partnering with BJ’s Wholesale Club to share some of our favorite holiday tips for entertaining. All thoughts and opinions are our own.
One of the most important things I’ve learned about hosting during the holidays is that you can’t do it all. At least not if you want to have time to enjoy yourself. I start baking Christmas cookies early and my freezer is already full of cookie dough and baked cookies including my new favorite recipe for Gingersnap Cookies (where have these been all my life?!). Last weekend I hit up BJ’s Wholesale Club for Christmas party supplies. I love cooking a big fancy dinner for friends but with 20+ people to cook for, and one little kitchen, something has to give. I focus on the main course and sides and I let BJ’s handle appetizers and dessert. BJ’s has everything from fresh meat and deli platters to frozen appetizers, as well as wine, beer and liquor. I also stock up on disposable plates, cutlery, cups, etc. because seriously, who wants to spend the whole day after a party washing dishes? Not this girl!
Hello, I’m wondering if you could use butter instead of shortening for the dough?
Thank you!
Yes, you can use butter instead of shortening it is substituted in a 1:1 ratio or you can do half butter and half shortening. You will get a less chewy cookie but it will still be delicious.
