Gingerbread Chocolate Chip Cookies?! This cookie is a must try if you have not already tried these cookies. The unique flavor of molasses and dark chocolate chips (which I used for this recipe) is such a GREAT combination.
Which brings me too, growing up I did not like Gingerbread Cookies because it didn’t have chocolate in it. In fact, it didn’t even taste good! However when I started baking A LOT, I started to like Gingerbread Cookies only because I started eating them not only once a year, but more than a few times during the holidays!
I really love this season! Not because of all the gifts that will be given or all the food that will be made or eaten, I love this season because there will be family get togethers! I get to hang out with my family and close family friends whom I haven’t seen in ages. There is so much laughter, great memories and of course good food. These cookies will be a huge hit to share with the family and one bite of the cookies, will always bring back happy memories!
