Directions
Puddin’ Head Gingerbread Men, This is a great gingerbread cookie recipe A little less strong than the traditional recipes, this contains no molasses and has butterscotch pudding mix in it Goes great with the light lemony decorating icing , I’ve been making gingerbread this way for the last couple years I originally found the recipe on another website, and since then my poor bottle of molasses has been sitting on the shelf unused 😉 They’re easy to mix up and roll out I like that the flavor isn’t quite as strong as some molasses-based gingerbread seems to be in my opinion They still have a good amount of spice though, and I don’t particularly taste the butterscotch Mine always turn out on the crunchy side, but that’s how I like them I’ve never tried them with the lemon glaze Thanks for posting!!! These are permanently part of my holiday baking!, These cookies are simple and delicious! We did not make the lemon glaze — we used store-bought icing tubes to decorate I am very impressed by how positively received the cookies are by all family members We have never even thought about making gingerbread before! I’m sure we will use this recipe again in the future Our batch made more like 24 cookies, but the first ones were not rolled as thinly as later ones
