Deep dark magic spice cookies
Cookies

I've been terribly excited about the upcoming Food52 Holiday Swap after having had such an amazing experience during my last several years of gifting and receiving. My first year participating I gifted some gingerbread people from a recipe I'd had and favored for a few years, but sadly lost in the frey after a lot of life happened. I haven't found a replacement to fall in love with since. This holiday season, I've been on the hunt, yet again, for a new recipe that might live up to rose-colored glasses memories I have of buttery, gingery, molasses-ey goodness from years past. <br /> <br />I came across this amazing sounding recipe for "Nanny's" Gingersnaps: https://food52.com/recipes/25347-nanny-s-gingersnap-cookies and realized that it might not be the gingerbread people I needed so much as a spicey but not overly sweet, gobble-worthy cookie to hit that holiday spot. <br /> <br />One thing that I really appreciate about the spice forward part of holiday baking is that the deep, nutty flavors that come from some of the heartier grains and ingredients we have in the pantry enhance the richness of the experience. Taking inspiration from Katheryn's Kitchen's Nanny, these spice cookies worthy of being called "Magic," were born. <br /> <br />Hope you enjoy. Happy Holidays.
