Irish Ginger Cookies

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!
