Cookies are Happiness in a small package

I  love making cookies. I know I've talked about my love of personal sized desserts and cookies are my favourite. Normally I make chocolate chip cookies. Mostly, I think, due to good memories from my childhood. They are crunchy on the outside, gooey-soft on the inside and full of chocolate! What's not to like?

The other day I got the hankering to make cookies and decided to try something different. So I cracked open my trusty cookbook and found a recipe without even a picture simply titled Ginger Cookies. I like ginger and I like cookies so I thought I'd give it a try.




They were DELICIOUS. And I didn't realized it until I was half way through making the dough, but the recipe makes 120 cookies. Holy mackerel. So, at the suggestion of my dear sister, I packaged some up and Aaron and I played cookie fairy. It was a ton of fun and we even got invited in for dinner at one of the houses we stopped at. All in all, a marvellous project and a wonderful evening.
