Directions
Mom’s Best Soft Gingerbread Cookies (New! Gb House Directions!),This is my mom’s recipe that just can’t be beat. I don’t know where the recipe came from, I just know they’re good! I like them plain with raisins for decoration, but you can go all-out if you want! Have fun and enjoy!! *used this recipe to make my gingerbread house, but the directions are slightly different for this. **See bottom of page.,I have made this so many times. My picky sons like them so much! I don’t roll out the dough, I just mash it with my hands to 1/2 inch and use cookie cutters then. Very soft cookies!
