9. Chai Gingerbread Waffles with Cranberry Cream


I’m obsessed! When I made these paleo gingerbread waffles using my Homemade Chai Spice Blend, I was surprised how close it came to traditional gingerbread spices! You still get that familiar taste of ginger, cloves, and cinnamon with a little bit of something extra — that you can’t put your finger on, but you love it.


10. Wholesome Gingerbread


The first time I was in charge of making gingerbread cookies for Christmas, it was a plain and utter disaster It was a dough with about 16 cups of flour. Six. Teen. And definitely not an easy gingerbread recipe.


11. Traditional Gingerbread Cookies


The best classic Gingerbread Cookies recipe for soft cookies!  It just wouldn’t be Christmas without a batch of these beauties.


12. Best, Ever Traditional Soft Gingerbread Cookies


Christmas = Gingerbread. That’s why you need these soft gingerbread molasses cookies on your Christmas baking list! They’re thick with a subtle molasses flavor and will make your house smell just like Christmas morning when you bake them.


13. Mini Gingerbread Cookie Cups


Decorated gingerbread cookie that looks too darn cute! Crisp, soft, sweet, spicy, minty and ADORABLE.


14. Gingerbread Spritz Cookies


Gingerbread spritz cookies are buttery and spiced with classic gingerbread flavors in this easily shaped version of gingerbread cookies. This spritz cookie recipe makes more than enough for a crowd.


15. Soft & Chewy Ginger Cookies


After spending what seemed like hours stringing one strand of lights, I took a break and made these cookies.  There are three kinds of cookies that I must make every Christmas, and this is one of them.  My mom has been making these cookies during the holidays for years, and even though she always sends me some in the mail, I like to have them baking in the oven sometimes as well.


16. Sweet Christmas Gingerbread Star Cookies


Good news! These gingerbread cookies will taste excellent with Fancy or Cooking molasses (though I still really recommend the former)

19. Copycat Starbucks Gingerbread Loaf


This one took a little longer to get on the blog than I initially had planned on. The truth is, I wasn’t real crazy with my first attempt. It wasn’t as moist as I had wanted. And I made WAY too much frosting for one loaf – not that I’m complaining.


20. Gingerbread Scones with Cream Cheese Frosting


These Gingerbread Scones with Cream Cheese Frosting are like a gingerbread cookie only in breakfast form!! Filled with cinnamon, ginger, clove, and molasses make these a wonderful breakfast treat!


21. Delicious Gingerbread Loaf


A gingerbread loaf was the first thing that I baked as a gift. It was a small and spicy gingerbread loaf that was a part of a breakfast basket. Since baking it that time I completely fell in love with it, with how easy it is, with how delicious it is and best of all with how to goo your home smells while you are baking it.


22. Chocolate Gingerbread Truffles


There are certain foods that, although perfectly delicious in their own right, become a whole other force to be reckoned with when combined. Peanut butter and jelly. Ketchup and fries. Cookies and cream cheese.
