My Gingersnaps do flatten, but they are still relatively thick. They look like disks approximately about 1/3″ thick.

It’s very hard to say why yours might not have turned out the same way. Many factors affect outcome, including how precisely the recipe was followed, specific ingredients used, oven temperatures, etc. If the cookies taste good and the recipient enjoys their gift, I’d say they are a success regardless of whether they flatten or not.

I made these last night as a gift. I am not a fan of ginger so worried they did not come out right. They did not spread out as I expected but stayed more of a ball shape. I hope this is normal. Any clues to keep me from being concerned? I read another recipe that said they do not spread out if not chilled first and this was a personal preference. Tell me what yours look like!

This is our family favorite, too! And Tracy, thank you for your Gingersnap recipe. Since I’ve been using your recipe, I’ve gotten the nieghbors and my nephew & his family hooked on them! I can’t make enough of them! Happy Holidays,

Lita

This recipe is a favourite in our family too. I’ve been making them for about 40 years and they are the best! Try them, you won’t be sorry if you like gingersnaps!

I love you emails. They really are informative and I love hearing of your adventures.

God is so good. I have just gotten over cancer for the 3rd time. I am on Chemo and doing very well. I have quilted more in the past year then my whole time quilting. It actually relaxes me. Thank you for the recipe. I always make candy and cookies to give to the pastors and their families and the ladies in the church office. God bless you! Jean

Thank you so much for sharing! I love the hearts with the pockets, as I can put a little note or even a small gift of cash for the recipient

Hi Tracy
I have seen these earlier and wanted to make them with my granddaughter. But I have not been able to find them on your site. I’m happy that you show them again. Thank you. I also love reading your Thought for the day. Karin from Norway
