    These were delicious.This recipe was perfect! I put them in the oven right when they were turning that golden brown color and they were perfect. This is definitely one of the best gingerbread cookie recipes out there.

    My dough didn't come together all that good either but overall I did what I could do and the cookies came out great.

    Easy, but the dough turned out way too dry. Only got about 10 cookies out of a double recipe. Maybe I did something wrong?

    Very easy and very tasty! Definitely will use this recipe every year! I have made the royal icing before and it works great with these cookies and sugar cookies!

    This was easy to make and they taste just great. Makes a little too much frosting and you probably could half that part of the receipe. Will make these again.

    this recipe made really delightful cookies. initially i rolled the dough out too thin and subsequently overbaked the cookies. they had a really buttery, not-so-gingery taste under those circumstances. once i stopped rolling the dough too thin, the cookies came out awesome. they were definitely sweet enough, though perhaps not spicy enough. next time i think i'll be a little more heavy handed with the ginger in particular. otherwise, this is a recipe worth visiting.

    I loved this recipe. My husband is a big gingerbread fan, so I thought we'd try these out. I used a tiny bit more molasses than the recipe called for, just to give the dough a little more moisture, and it worked out great. I also baked it for ten minutes, to keep the cookies chewy. We used forest animal cookie cutters and they turned out really cute!

    easy recipe! first timer at holiday cookie making and this easy ginerbread recipe was a hit! I used a hand mixer and still got great results. I used a different icing recipe though. I will definately make again next year.

    This is a wonderful recipe! Really easy to make and decorate. Even after sitting out all night so the royal icing could fully dry, the cookies were the perfect consistency....not too hard but not too soft..just right. This will be my yearly go to recipe for Christmas cookies! I highly recommend.
