Thank you to Lynae K. for this soft gingerbread cookie recipe. I love fresh gingerbread, but it hardens too quickly for my taste (although I'll still eat it, of course!). So this recipe is perfect, and the kids LOVE to decorate the little gingerbread people.
1 c. butter or shortening
1 c. packed brown sugar
2 eggs
3/4 c. molasses
4 3/4 c. flour
1 tsp baking soda
2 1/2 tsp ginger
1 tsp salt
3/4 c. sour milk
Mix butter, sugar, eggs, and molasses together. In separate bowl mix dry ingredients. Add to butter mixture, alternating dry mix and milk. Roll out on floured surface. Cut out shapes, and bake at 375* for ten minutes.
I love food! I love sweet pepper sauce and I've always had a love affair with D'anjou Pears. Hence the Blog name. But it could have just as easily been something to do with my other favorite ingredients, like coconut, almonds, nutmeg, sugar peas, mangoes, chocolate, cilantro, tomatoes, olives, pasta... well the list goes on and on.
Poetry
If ever there was a poetic fruit, pears are it. Possibly pomegranates, strawberries, peaches, grapes, and certainly mangoes. Well, there goes the plug for my poetic pear.
