 I baked these "Big Soft Ginger Cookies" last night and they really are soft and super yummy! I substituted shortening for margarine and baked for 10 minutes (it says 8 to 10-- 8 was not enough)

Yum! Please share your recipe if you don't mind.
Have you ever added a pinch of cayenne pepper to your molasses cookies? It is an explosion of incredible flavor. The sweetness of the molasses and the little heat from the cayenne pepper complement each other. Quote:

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons ground ginger 1 teaspoon baking soda 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves 1/4 teaspoon salt 3/4 cup shortening 1 cup white sugar 1 egg 1 tablespoon water 1/4 cup molasses 2 tablespoons white sugar Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Sift together the flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and salt. Set aside. In a large bowl, cream together the margarine and 1 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, then stir in the water and molasses. Gradually stir the sifted ingredients into the molasses mixture. Shape dough into walnut sized balls, and roll them in the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar. Place the cookies 2 inches apart onto an ungreased cookie sheet (i actually sprayed mine with Pam) and flatten slightly. Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.

Thank you!
Note to self... don’t be eating a molasses cookie when reading about ginger bread/snap cookies. Thank you again for the recipe. Quote:

1st grader in Edinburg, Texas, asking for a ball, food and a blanket
 The teacher had asked the kids to write a letter to Santa asking for something that they wanted and something that they needed. Reminds us that a lot of kids in America won't have much of a Christmas if they don't even have their basic needs met. http://abcnews.go.com/US/1st-grader-...ry?id=51832337

I can't WAIT to get to Atlanta for Christmas/Yule!
We are going to the Botanical Gardens for the lights and such:  And I have a metric TON of cookie recipes, fudge recipes, and various sugary balls of goodness that I want to make! ANDDDDD we have a John Waters marathon planned. AND...perhaps best of all...we are going to the Korean spa! ANDDDDDDDDD I am so excited that it's cold and that there will be lights everywhere and that it might snow and and and... WEEE!

Update on a more positive note, full of holiday spirit:
This teacher organized the community and collected enough blankets that each child could have at least one. I believe at last count was around 775 blankets. They are also working to deal with the hungry children to make sure this is addressed. Happiest of Holidays to everyone at BFP!   Quote:
