Mom always used the same round-headed cookie cutter to make her boys. They always came out of the oven soft and chewy with plenty of traditional molasses-ginger flavor. --Donna Sasser Hinds, Milwaukie, Oregon

These cookies are formed by cookie cutters. By using a toothpick to make a hole in the top of the cookie, you can hang them on the tree. You can also make paint out of egg yolks, and food coloring to make them more colorful--use as much food coloring as needed to create desired hue. My girls and I would spend hours making these cookies each Christmas so we could hang them on the tree.
