Dipped Gingersnap Cookies image

These are the best gingersnaps ever! Having never really liked crispy cookies, I "snapped" up this recipe for a soft version! There are always many requests for these and I make them every year for the holidays. These freeze well, too, so you can have some on hand for company - just let them defrost for about 30...

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 c granulated sugar
1 1/2 c vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1/2 c molasses
4 c all purpose flour
4 tsp baking soda
1 Tbsp ground ginger
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp salt
24 oz white chocolate chips
1/4 c vegetable shortening
additional sugar for rolling dough balls

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • 2. In a large bowl, combine the sugar and oil - mix well. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in molasses until fully incorporated.
  • 3. Combine dry ingredients in a medium bowl, blending well. Add the dry ingredients gradually into the wet mixture, about a cup at a time, until well blended. If using a hand mixer, the dough gets very stiff - I wind up mixing by hand about halfway through this process...
  • 4. Form 3/4" balls and roll in the additional sugar. Place the balls about 2" apart on a lightly greased cookie sheet to allow for spreading. I flatten them slightly.
  • 5. Bake for 10 - 12 minutes or until the cookies spring back when touched lightly. Remove to wire racks and cool completely.
  • 6. Melt the white chocolate chips with shortening in a small saucepan over low heat. Dip the cooled cookies into the melted chocolate to cover half. Place dipped cookies on a sheet of wax paper or parchment to allow the chocolate to set up.

These cookies were easy to make but they were a bit bland. They needed more spices.

These cookies were a waste of time and ingredients. They didn't taste good and they were really hard to make.

These cookies were really hard to make. The dough was too sticky and the cookies didn't turn out the right shape.

The chocolate was a bit too thick and overpowered the flavor of the ginger snaps.

The cookies were a bit dry, but the chocolate coating helped to make them more moist.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good.
