lucky girl
we made a long desired batch of these cookies, first eyed over here.
and they truly lived up to expectations.
big. chewy. just like the picture (rare and yet surprisingly true). and incredibly popular...
anais' summation: 'yucky girrrrrl!'
lucky girl indeed.
addendum: for the aussies struggling to find molasses for this recipe, i admit that i adapted the recipe (no surprises there, really). i used golden syrup instead of molasses and brown sugar replaced the white sugar to obtain the caramel flavour. bon appetit!
yummmmmmm! It's a little too early for me though - maybe morning tea :)

Stomach is growling now, before bed! Ginger Molasses cookies are my favorite! Looks like they turned out wonderfully.
