PEPPERIDGE FARM GINGERMAN COPYCATS, REVISED
I got this recipe on here as #97692. I love these cookies and have made them quite a few times since then. Here's the recipe & instructions revised a bit for making the job easier. This can also be made using splenda for baking to cut down on sugar intake and works extremely well.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
- Cream together sugars, shortening, molasses, eggs, and vanilla & beat with a mixer until smooth & uniform.
- Add remaining dry ingredients (except decoration items), scraping the bowl as you go.
- If you choose to make round drop cookies, use the batter as is and scoop out with a TBSP cookie scoop onto greased pan, about 2-3 inches apart.
- If you want to make cookie cutter shapes, add extra flour to the bowl 1/4 cup at a time until dough is stiff and clears the side of the bowl. Roll out on a heavily floured surface with a floured rolling pin. Roll out to approximately 1/4 inch thick & cut with the cutters. Then place onto greased cookie sheets.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes. (These bake best with only one or two sheets in at a time. If you are making a lot, use two "shifts" of two cookies sheets.).
- Let the cookies cool on the sheet for a couple of minutes, then transfer to cooling rack. This will prevent the bottom of your cookies from sinking through the spaces in the rack.
- Sprinkle with decorative sugar while still slightly warm.

COOKIE JAR GINGERSNAPS
My grandma kept two cookie jars in her pantry. One of the jars, which I now have, always had these crisp and chewy gingersnaps in it. They're still my favorite cookie recipe. My daughter, Becky, used this recipe for a 4-H fair and won a blue ribbon. -Deb Handy, Pomona, Kansas
