Chocolate Gingerbread Drops image

Still delivering the last of my cookie trays for 2007 and already contemplating the goodies that will adorn them in 2008. This one came to me in an e-mail from BHG and the ingredient list had me salivating. Placing this here for safekeeping.

Time 33m

Yield 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup shortening
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup molasses
1 egg
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup dried tart cherry
3 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F

I'm not a big fan of gingerbread, but these drops were surprisingly good. The chocolate chips added a nice touch of sweetness and the ginger gave them a little bit of a kick.
