Gingerbread Chickens

[MissPrissy]

Cyn, I have no clue on the cookie. Was it molasses or more of a sugar cookie?

 

[gumpsgirl]

You are just so clever MissP! Now I'm going to have to go and find a chicken cookie cutter.

I just ordered some cool cookie cutters.

What I liked about this site is that the cutters were reasonable $2-$3 each and the shipping was less than $4!!!

Other sites had 99cent cutters with $14 shipping charges - ugh!

I have gingerbread ornaments in my etsy shop for your Christmas tree.

I don't recall a strong molasses taste, but I'm sure there was lots of brown sugar involved. The were fairly thin and quite chewy, is all I remember. Hope my dad can find the recipe for me.

Not ginger snaps?

 

[speckledhen]

I don't think so, but it's been many years since she made them, since she's been gone ten and before that, had Alzheimers for a couple years. I'll have to see if Dad will try to go through her recipes for me. I keep asking and he keeps forgetting.

Snickerdoodles?

 

[speckledhen]

Definitely not Snickerdoodles. These are very brown. Wish I'd paid more attention to her making them rather than just eating them!
