I love this recipe! I made these gingerbread boys for last Christmas and "Summer Cookies" a couple of weeks ago when the kids started their summer vacation: I decorated them with royal icing and mm's and they came out gorgeous - no to mention delicious. I added a bit more orange zest than the recipe suggest because I love the flavor. Thank you for the great recipe!

Excellent frosting: spreads nice, dries fast, won't crack or melt. You can make interesting variations by adding food coloring and/or different extracts like vanilla or almond. Thank you!!! :)

Oh my, these were wonderful! I didn't have any pecans so they came out basically as meringue made with brown sugar. To make them a bit "fancier" I piped them on the parchment paper (I used zip log bag). The weather was humid and I was worried they'd lose their crunch but they were so delicious even when a bit sticky, reminding me of taffy. Everyone loved them. Thank you for the great recipe!
