Learn how to make these no-fuss Ginger Sugar Cookies. Crisp, a little spicy, sweetly smothered in decadent chocolate, and perfect for the holidays.

Hello fellow cookie lovers! I’m Jane, and along with my sister Sonja, we blog over at Sustain My Craft Habit. I’m so happy to be here at SoFabFood sharing one of our favorite cookie recipes for the holidays.

It almost isn’t fair. Every year come November/December, all the best and most beautiful cookie recipes adorn the covers of my favorite magazines. And while I drool over each picture and decide which ones I’m going to make, I can’t help but wonder why we can’t enjoy the sweetness all year round! I mean, who wouldn’t love to try a good cookie recipe in July?

Well, aside from my quest for year-round cookie equality, it is true that one of my favorite events during this time of year is a Christmas baking session with Sonja. Each year we find one Saturday to spend together and bake some of our usual recipes as well as try some new ones. We start with grand plans of making a dozen different types of cookies then spend half the afternoon ogling the magazines and recipe books trying to agree on what we’ll make. Last year we ended up making two types of cookies. By the way, did I mention that we have five kids between us? Needless to say, the cookies didn’t last long.

But as they say, it’s the journey and not the destination that counts. So, while those Saturday afternoons spent together each year may not actually yield tons of cookies, they do make lots of wonderful memories for us.

One of our favorite cookies to bake is a Chocolate-Drizzled Ginger Sugar Cookie. This no-fuss sugar cookie is crisp, a little spicy, and sweet when smothered in chocolate. We like to think of it as a more sophisticated sugar cookie.

We hope that you have a wonderful Christmas, baking lots of memories with your loved ones.
