These are favorite holiday treats at our house! I bought these cookie sheets a long time ago and the exact ones are no longer available BUT Wilton has an updated version*! The original recipe calls for shortening and a few other chemical-y things that I’ve replaced. The result is a brownie-like texture that we really enjoy and it makes enough for 2 giant gingerbread men!
Ingredients
-
- 1 cup packed dark brown sugar
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar (or Stevia)
- 1/2 cup butter (I use salted)
- 1/4 cup molasses
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (unbleached)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
Directions
-
-
-
Preheat oven to 300°F.
-
Cream together sugars, butter, molasses, eggs and vanilla in large bowl; beat with electric mixer till smooth.
-
In another large bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, ginger, salt, cinnamon, and cloves; add dry mixture a little at a time to the wet mixture, stirring as you go.
-
For large gingerbread men, don’t spread dough all the way to the edges
-
Bake for around 30 minutes (depends on the oven). I set my oven to “convection” so I can cook both pans at one time. For a crisper cookie, set oven to “bake” and cook one sheet at a time.
