Baking cookies is synonymous with Christmas. Ginger cookies even more so. These ginger cookies dipped in white chocolate is a Christmas regular for me and makes such a great holiday cookie. I love their gingery chew and the white chocolate adds just the right amount of sweetness. I love decorating them with festive sprinkles for added flair but they are perfect as is.

How to make ginger cookies

Can I make gingerbread man cookies from this recipe?

This recipe is more designed for chewy soft gingerbread cookies, rather than crispy gingerbread man style cookies. However, you can roll the dough out between two sheets of parchment paper then refrigerate for 30 minutes. Using a cookie cutter dipped into flour, cut the gingerbread men out and place on baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for another 30 minutes before baking to prevent spreading. Bake until the cookies are crisp and golden brown.
