Ingredients
Directions
- Place margarine in large mixing bowl; soften it in a microwave for a few seconds.
- Cream sugar and margarine; add molasses and water.
- Combine flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, and allspice.
- Add to the mixing bowl; mix together.
- Let dough cool, covered, in freezer for at least one hour.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Roll out dough; cut out with cookie cutters.
- If the cookies are thin, bake for 6 minutes.
- If cookies are thick, bake for 8 minutes.
- Cookies will appear slightly underbaked but that's what makes them taste so good and chewy!
- Cool cookies on a wire rack.
- These cookies stand their own without frosting, but if you want to frost them, mix a cup of powdered sugar with a little water to make frosting. Draw a few accent lines or dots on the cookies.
