These cookies are so sparkly and pretty! Would look great on a holiday tray. Thanks!
You’re welcome! Thanks for visiting 🙂
Thanks so much for this recipe. My husband loves molasses cookies and this recipe looks super easy, and I’m sure they’ll make the house smell yummy.
These look delicious! Bookmarking for future reference. 🙂
How many cookies in one batch. It says 18 servings. I do not know how many cookies in a serving.
Anyone know?
18 cookies = 1 batch 🙂 Hope that helps! Enjoy!
These are the best molasses cookies I’ve ever made. Soft and chewy at first, then after a few days they are nicely cripsy.
So glad you love them! ?
Could I freeze the dough to bake later or would that have a bad affect on the cookies?
I think it would be fine to freeze the dough. While I have not tried that with this exact recipe, I have for many others and it has worked well!
