Seriously, I have SO many favorites to share with you. Several are family faves, recipes handed down to me by my grandmothers and my mom. Others are ones that I myself created and have been baking for my kids.
My mom's favorite cookie is the Gingersnap, and I was inspired by one of my grandma's old cookbooks to make these. This cookbook is so old, they used Oleo as the fat. You'd be surprised at how many of both of my grandma's recipes call for Oleo or shortening. So of course I tweaked all of their recipes just a bit.
The best part about these Gingersnaps is cutting them into different shapes. The traditional shape is a circle, but I also used rectangle cutters and a snowflake too. Have fun with this, and cut out any shape you'd like!
