Our Christmas Collection this year includes Holiday Bake Off, a fragrance full of nostalgic aromas that will be sure to warm your home this Christmas. The delightfully sweet fragrance was inspired by gingerbread cookies, particularly this AMAZING recipe from The Salted Sweets.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup butter, melted & cooled
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs, room temp
2/3 cup molasses
4 1/2 cups flour
2T baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp ground ginger
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp cloves
1 1/2 tsp salt
CINNAMON ICING
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
1T milk
Sprinkle of cinnamon
STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 F. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, mix melted butter and sugar together. Add eggs and molasses and mix until combined.
Add dry ingredients and mix until completely combined.
Flour a large surface or baking mat. Roll dough until desired thickness. I like mine to be about ½ inch thick. Cut out cookies and continue to re-roll dough and cut until all dough is used.
Bake for 8-10 minutes or until a light golden brown around the edges.
Add all icing to a bowl and mix together. Dip cooled cookies into the icing, or you can frost them with an off set spatula if you prefer. Allow icing to set.
