gingerbread cookies

[Guest guest]

I just made gingerbread cookies with my kids, and thought I'd share

the recipe with you all. It's adapted from a Betty Crocker recipe.

 

 

GINGERBREAD COOKIES

 

1/2 c. vegan margarine

1/2 c. sugar

1/2 c. molasses

2 Tbsp. water

2 1/2 c. flour

1/4 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. ginger

1/4 tsp. nutmeg

1/4 tsp. allspice

 

Cream margarine and sugar together. Then add molasses and water and

mix. Blend dry ingredients together, then mix them in with the wet

stuff. Chill the dough 2-3 hours. Roll out to 1/4 " thick. Cut with

cookie cutters, then decorate. Bake on ungreased cookie sheets at 350

degrees for 9 minutes. (If you prefer thinner cookies, lessen the

baking time. For crisper ones, cook longer.)
