Steps:
- Preheat oven to 275 degrees.
- Butter a large cookie sheet.
- Whip cream until almost stiff.
- Combine sugar, molasses, syrup, ginger, lemon rind and baking soda and mix thoroughly. Pour into cream and beat for 10 minutes by hand or four minutes in an electric mixer.
- Add five cups of flour and blend in thoroughly. Beat in remaining flour gradually until dough is just smooth enough to handle but still soft and pliable.
- Wrap in waxed paper and chill several hours or overnight.
- Roll out to one-fourth-inch thickness on a lightly floured board. Cut into fancy shapes, such as animals, boys, girls, stars, hearts and crescents, with cookie cutters about two and a half inches wide, or cut into gingerbread boys or girls in any size.
- Place on cookie sheet and bake for about 12 minutes, or until evenly golden brown.

[email protected]I was a little worried that the dough would be too sticky to work with, but it was actually really easy to handle. I used a cookie scoop to drop the dough onto the baking sheet, and it worked perfectly.

[email protected]I've tried many gingersnap recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. The cookies are perfectly crispy and chewy, with just the right amount of spice. I love that they're not too sweet, so I can enjoy them without feeling guilty.
