Frosted Ginger Cookies
Source: I have had this recipe for years, I believe it is out of theFamily Circle Magazine. (Entered by Charlene Stapleton)This is a favorite ginger cookie in our house. Most of the time when I bake these I don’t add the icing. I serve these especially on Thanksgiving and other family gatherings and offer pumpkin dip to dip the cookies. Pumpkin lovers are plentiful in this family.
These cookies have a soft texture and the subtle blend of spices isn’t over powering. Great with a cup of tea or coffee as an afternoon snack or in the evening after dinner.
