Nothing says the holidays quite like gingerbread cookies. As the cookies bake, they fill the house with the fragrant aroma of cinnamon, ginger and rich sweet molasses. We kept our cookie decorations simple but feel free to get creative with decorative icing, sprinkles and small candy toppings.

See our Gingerbread story, too! It explains how this recipe was inspired by Hallmark Channel’s movie, ‘Tis the Season for Love. Catch the movie this season while you are baking a batch of these cookies to share!
