    Definitely making these. I love gingerbread and now I don’t have to bite off heads! Thanks, Lina!

    • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

      Yes they are wonderful! Enjoy 🙂

  2. Julia L.

    I love how simple but elegant the cookies look. Great job, Lina!

    • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

      Thanks so much Julia!

  3. Juli

    Would these work with quinoa flour or another gluten free type of flour?

    • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

      Hi Juli, I’m not a GF expert unfortunately, sorry! Maybe a reader has had more experience and can tell us? Thanks!

    • Shey

      These would work to convert them GF. I find it best when baking GF to mix a variety of flours together. It always turns out better… No so crumbly or gritty. I usually pick three to four different types and add them to equal up to the total amount of regular flour needed. Tends to work out pretty well. Xanthum gum also helps keep the baked good held together more.

  4. Karen

    Wow. Yummy!!

  5. Meg

    Are these freezable? As in will they still be chewy after thawing from storage?
    Tia!

    • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

      Yes. I believe cookie dough with lots of butter like gingerbread or sugar cookies are great to freeze. Thanks!

  6. Brit

    Sound absolutely amazing. I can’t wait!!!

  7. Susie

    Looks good! I pinned it make later. 🙂

    • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

      Thanks Susie!

  8. Jen

    Definitely be making these with my essential oils! Yum!

  9. Polly

    They look divine, Lina! Thanks for the great recipe and great pics! Also had a thought, I think I’ll be calling these ginger-not-so-snap cookies (so soft, they don’t snap when you bite into them)!

    • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

      Yes! Awesome : ) thanks Polly.

  10. Katherine

    Do not recommend. Recipe makes almost 45 cookies if you follow the tablespoon of dough per cookie like the recipe says. Which in turn makes them crunchy if you follow the cook time. Maybe if you double the dough per cookie they might turn out what you expect for a gingersnap.
