Bake our ultimate Irish Ginger Cookies because Christmas deserves only the best cookies! I’ve always been fond of Christmas baking, and I truly believe that no holiday serving platter would be complete without a batch of ginger cookies.
I love the deep ginger flavor of these soft in the middle but crunchy outside cookies. They are also loaded with cinnamon and cloves – our favorite seasonal spices. Finally, they are perfect for baking with your children and to give as a holiday food gift this winter. By the way, don’t forget to leave one for Santa!
To make these Irish Ginger Cookies, you will need the following ingredients:
Heat the oven to 350 °F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
Use a hand mixer to combine ¾ cup softened butter and 1 cup brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add into the butter mixture 1 egg and ¼ teaspoon salt. Mix on low speed until combined.
Add in 2 cups flour, ½ teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cloves, 2 teaspoons ground ginger, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Mix until just combined.
Using a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop the batter into 24 even portions. Shape into balls and roll into confectioners’ sugar until coated all over. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet spacing about 1½ inches apart.
Bake the cookies for 15 minutes.
Once baked, immediately transfer to a wire rack to cool.
Serve these cookies for your holiday season and add them to the gift packages too. Enjoy!
