Thank you, friends, for checking in for the last 26 days while we did the alphabet countdown.
It’s time for your reward. Please help yourself to as many gingersnaps as you want.
If you feel like making your own, I will share the recipe at the end of the post.

1 c. butter
1 c. molasses
½ c. brown sugar
Remove from heat. Put in bowl.

Cool in fridge.
Roll and slice or cut with cookie cutter.
Bake at 350* for 8 minutes.

Sugary, but good. Once a year, it’s not too bad.

Those cookies look so yummy, thanks for the recipe.
Your posts from A-Z were fun and I learned a few things, so thanks for them too. It´s too bad that the alphabet doesn´t have more letters.
