This recipe for Spiced Ginger Crinkle Cookies is ideal for holiday baking. These gingerbread flavored crinkle cookies are full of flavor, chewy, and coated in sugar to reveal their crinkle cookie cracks.
Let the Christmas baking begin and these cookies are at the top of my list for festive treats!

My Chocolate Christmas Crinkle Cookies
A couple of weeks ago, I tried to make chocolate crinkle cookies, but the recipe I developed was too buttery, so when I baked them the sugar melted into a sort of icing. I fixed the problem by using sprinkles instead, but I was determined to come up with a classic crinkle cookie that worked.
These Spiced Ginger Crinkle Cookies were totally worth the wait!
They are delightfully soft and chewy with those nice crisp edges, but if you’d like more of a crisp throughout ginger cookie just bake them a few minutes longer than what is in the recipe.
Whether you are baking for a Christmas party or you’re you are looking for that perfect, festive treat to make for your friends and neighbors, I highly highly recommend trying these wonderful cookies!
These are so good and they are definitely a cookie people of all ages will love. The dough is really easy to work with and doesn’t to chill over night. And the scent in the kitchen when baking them is like gingerbread heaven!

Baking Tips For the Best Crinkle of Your Cookies:
- Bake one batch at a time on the middle rack. You’ll get the best possible results when doing so. If you absolutely need to bake more than one batch at a time, not only turn the pans but rotate the baking sheets from the top rack to bottom rack halfway through the baking process to encourage even baking.
- Make sure you’re using baking soda that’s not too old. This can affect how well the cookies rise and bake.
- Over mixing the cookie dough once the flour is added will also affect the end result of the bake. When Mixing, only mix until the flour is combined on a lower speed (when in doubt mix by hand).
- Be sure to cream the butter and sugar long enough. Cream until light and fluffy. That said, over creaming will also affect the bake resulting in a cookie that can collapse.
- Be sure to thoroughly chill the cookies before baking.

Ingredients
3
cups
unbleached all-purpose flour
1⁄2
cup
light brown sugar, packed
1⁄2
cup
granulated sugar
1
teaspoon
baking powder
1
teaspoons
ground cinnamon
2
teaspoons
ground ginger
1⁄2
teaspoon
pumpkin pie spice
1⁄2
teaspoon

1½
sticks
butter
chilled and cut into cubes
1

3⁄4
cup

3
tablespoons
milk
1
cup
confectioners sugar
Instructions
In a food processor, mix together the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, and salt until combined.
Add the butter. Blitz until it resembles breadcrumbs (If you don't have a food processor, at this point you can use a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the flour mixture.)
Add the molasses, vanilla, and milk. Mix again until the dough comes together.
Divide the dough in half and shape each half into two round disks. Cover them in plastic wrap and chill 2 hours minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350F. Line the 2 baking sheets with nonstick foil or baking paper.
Take the chilled dough and roll the dough into 2 inch round balls. Work as fast as you can so not to allow the dough to get too warm.
Roll each dough ball in confectioner's sugar until evenly coated. Place the coated balls 1-inch apart on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the cookies until set - 10 to 12 minutes (being careful not to overbake).
Cool the cookies on the sheets 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool.
