Full of Christmas cheer
These were the second batch of cookies that I brought to the cookie exchange, and they went over pretty well. Honestly, gingerbread isn’t my favorite, but it’s a traditional holiday cookie, so I had to oblige. Going with the theme of my blog, I didn’t want a cookie that was laden with butter. So I searched for low fat ginger bread cookies. I found this recipe from Skinny taste, and adapted it slightly.
Fact — these cookies need frosting. Absolutely 100% needs some sort of frosting. On their own, they’re kind of dry, and eating dry cookies is on par with eating sand…with hidden shards of glass. So I made a very simple glaze to add to them. The glaze only adds about 1.5 grams of sugar and 10 calories to the cookies, and they clock in at about 85 calories per cookie.
