Steps:
- Make the Dough: Beat the brown sugar and butter with an electric mixer at medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the corn syrup, egg, cream, and lemon zest. Whisk together the flour, instant espresso, ginger, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl; gradually add to the butter mixture, and beat at low speed until combined. Shape the dough into a flat disk; wrap with plastic wrap. Chill the dough until firm, at least 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Make the Filling: Stir together the brown sugar, maraschino cherry juice and butter until blended; stir in the pecans.
- Roll the dough to 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Cut with a 2 1/2-inch round cookie cutter. Place the dough circles 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
- Place 1/2 teaspoon of the filling in the center of each dough circle. Shape into a cone by folding the edges of the dough to meet over the filling; pinch the edges together. Place 1 cherry half at the opening end of each bell for the clapper.
- Bake until golden brown, about 12 minutes. Cool on the pans for 5 minutes; remove to a wire rack to cool completely.

MARY JANE'S DELICIOUS COOKIES
This family recipe was almost lost. Grandma gave this recipe to Mary S. after the dementia set in. Sarah was at Mary's after Grandma's funeral getting a recipe. This recipe fell out of Mary's box and Sarah picked it up, recognizing her mother's handwriting. Mary pled with Sarah to let her keep it saying that Grandma had given it to her. Sarah made her a copy and the original recipe is in Sarah's recipe box and now here.

MARY POPPINS' NO BAKE COOKIES
As Mary Poppins would say, these are practically perfect in every way!! They have more chocolate and less sugar/butter than most no-bake cookies. Brown sugar adds depth of flavor, while extra vanilla and a pinch of salt liven it up. Besides, they are quick and easy, and everyone loves them! I think you could reduce the sugar even more, but they're great as written. Try them with extra dark (Dutch process) cocoa powder...mmmm.

Tips:
- Use room temperature butter: Softened butter is easier to cream with sugar, resulting in a smoother cookie dough.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing can result in tough cookies. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough helps to firm it up and prevent it from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The ideal temperature for baking Mary's Bell cookies is 350°F (175°C). Baking them at a higher temperature can result in burnt cookies.
- Don't overbake the cookies: Overbaking can result in dry, crumbly cookies. Bake the cookies just until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing them: This will help to prevent them from becoming soft and chewy.
Conclusion:
Mary's Bell cookies are a classic recipe that is sure to please everyone. They are easy to make and can be customized with a variety of different add-ins. With a few simple tips, you can easily make perfect Mary's Bell cookies at home.
