Ginger Cookies with Orange Glaze
These are deliciously soft, chewy cookies. They are wonderful for Christmas plates and bake sales because they don't fall apart easily. Garnish with decorative pearls if desired.

6.28.17 I used a small 1” cookie scoop and ended up with 52 cookies which baked perfectly at 8 minutes. The texture of the cookie was soft and tender, very nice. If I were to make this recipe again, I’d probably add more ginger and maybe even more molasses, since I thought the ginger cookie flavor was weak. Unfortunately, I didn’t like the glaze AT ALL. If you want iced ginger cookies or even a drizzle on them as I did, I’d recommend you use orange juice because the orange extract was too strong and just tasted artificial, simply not good. I drizzled the glaze on a few cookies, tasted one, and threw away the rest of the glaze. These cookies were OK, but I doubt I’ll make them again. racahoon, sorry, wish I had a better review for you, but thanks for sharing your recipe.
