This is the most amazing recipe! My cookies turned out looking exactly like the ones in the photo. I made approximately half of the recipe and didn't even have baking soda on hand, but they turned out great. I put them in the freezer for only a half hour and then in between rolling them, and they still rolled wonderfully. Also, they aren't too sweet at all. But, very savoury. :) Enjoy!

I made these and decorated them. One thing we especially liked was that there were no eggs in this recipe. With no eggs, everyone could lick the bowl. Also, we liked that they weren't too sweet. When you decorate them with frosting, some cookes get too sweet. Made cute gingerbread men too!
