Holiday Baking

Gingerbread Man ‘Tis the season for chilly noses, bright sweaters, warm fires, and hearty food! If you’re anything like us you’ve been celebrating with a few too many cookies (and several scoops of ice cream, too)! This year we found a sweet new recipe for Spiced Holiday Sugar Cookies (courtesy of McCormick®). They’re a delicious spin on traditional gingerbread, a cross between gingerbread and sugar cookies! Use a creative cookie cutter, and colorful icing to make these cookies extra fun!

Spiced Holiday Sugar Cookies
Makes 6 dozen or 24 (3 cookie) servings.
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Refrigerate Time: 2 hours
Cook Time: 8 to 10 minutes per batch

Cookie Ingredients Gingerbread Cookies
2 1/3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon Cinnamon, Ground
1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg, Ground
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
1 egg
2 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract

Icing Ingredients:
1 cup confectioners’ sugar
3 to 4 teaspoons milk
1/2 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
3 to 4 drops Assorted Food Colors

Directions

1. Mix flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in medium bowl. Set aside. Beat granulated sugar and butter in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla; mix well. Gradually beat in flour mixture on low speed until well mixed. Refrigerate dough 2 hours or overnight until firm.

2. Preheat oven to 375°F. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface* to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut into shapes with favorite cookie cutters. Place on greased baking sheets.

3. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on baking sheets 1 minute. Remove to wire racks; cool completely.

4. For the Icing, mix all ingredients except food colors. (Stir in additional milk as needed to thin icing or more confectioners’ sugar to thicken, if needed.) Place small amount of icing into small shallow bowls, using one bowl for each color desired. Stir drops of food color into icing until desired shade is reached.

5. To ice cookies, hold cookie by its edge and dip top of cookie into icing. (Or spoon the icing onto cookie using a teaspoon.) Place iced cookies on wire rack set over foil-covered baking sheet to dry. (The foil-covered baking sheet will catch drips.) To add decorative details to cookies, spoon tinted icing into resealable plastic bag. Snip off a tiny piece of the corner. Squeeze icing through hole in plastic bag to decorate cookies. If desired, Colored Sugar may be sprinkled onto freshly iced cookies.
