They made odd gingersnaps as they were not too gingery and they lacked any snap. They were more molasses-y and chewy. They were ok but not my first or even third pick in any given holiday cookie line up.
Addendum: I made a second batch of these with the leftover frozen dough. We cut them out into gingerbread men and frosted and decorated a few. They were much better this way. I think it removed them from the "gingersnap" category and put them into the "gingerbread cookie" category in my head, which just made a lot more sense.

I didn't love these cookies. So disappointed that they weren't spicy or snappy enough. I am going to keep looking for a better gingersnap recipe.

I thought these should have been called molasses chips or something. Molasses was the prominent flavor, and no snap at all! A big disappoint, for I love gingersnaps.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I agree all the way around. this recipe didn't make very many! There are better recipes out there for sure! On to the next one...
ReplyDeleteI think we came to the same consensus! :-)
