I did a new recipe from tasteofhome.com. I never ever did gingerbread dough before, so I was a bit nervous but well, what should I say..... it was so easy. Oh my ... from know on that's my favorite recipe.
Ich habe ein neues Rezept von der tasteofhome.com Webseite ausprobiert. Ich habe vorher noch nie Lebkuchenteig selbst gemacht. Ich hab mich da nie heran getraut. Aber wie so oft schon dieses Jahr, hab ich die Erfahrung gemacht, das auch dies so einfach ist. Ab sofort wird der jedes Jahr gemacht.
Rezept:
Ingredients
* 3/4 cup butter, softened
* 1 cup packed brown sugar
* 1 egg
* 3/4 cup molasses
* 4 cups all-purpose flour
* 2 teaspoons ground ginger
* 1-1/2 teaspoons baking soda
* 1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
* 3/4 teaspoon ground cloves
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* Vanilla frosting of your choice
* Red and green paste food coloring
Directions
In a large bowl, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg and molasses. Combine the flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight or until easy to handle.
On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to 1/8-in. thickness. Cut with floured 2-1/2-in. cookie cutters. Place 1 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets.
Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes or until edges are firm. Remove to wire racks to cool. Tint some of the frosting red and some green. Decorate cookies. Yield: 5 dozen.
