This isn't something I would do just for the heck of it anymore but for the holidays....maybe. I'm posting this as a cathartic thing. I'm passing on my non-diabetic goodies to folks who can offer them a good home. I just can't abandon them without a chance to become good little recipes for someone else. This could go on for some time, I have a lot of recipes! It's been a long time since I made these and I don't honestly recall how long it took to make and press them out so I'm taking my best guess. *Please note*: As written the recipe will yield a milder spice flavor. If you prefer a stronger spicy flavor double the spice amounts (or to taste). Ingredients:
2 3/4 cups flour |
3/4 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves |
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger |
1 cup margarine |
1/4 cup molasses |
1/4 cup packed brown sugar |
1 egg |
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400ยบ F.
2. Stir together flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, and ginger; set aside. In a large mixing bowl beat together margarine until smooth.
3. Add molasses and brown sugar and beat until fluffy.
4. Add egg and vanilla; beat well. Gradually add flour mixture until all combined.
5. Prepare cookie press with desired design. Fill press and place cookies two inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
6. Bake in oven for about 6 minutes or until the edges are firm but not browned.
7. Remove and cool completely on wire racks.
