I love to bake during the holidays. It’s one of my favorite traditions. My Mother in Law makes the most amazing gingersnap cookies and has graciously given me her recipe to share with you! She was a home and careers teacher until this past year when she retired and would make these with her students, they were always a huge hit!

I’m so excited to be sharing these gingersnap cookies with you today. I’m freezing them so that we will have them at Christmastime, but I know we will be taste testing after they bake, just for science ;)

Our baking station was the perfect set up to make these gingersnap cookies. See all the details, HERE.
