I made these today. Mine did not turn out fluffly like the ones above, but were flat. Despite that, they were still very tasty and soft! They have a great taste. I will make these again.
hi!
i just wanted you to know that i made these cookies last week and froze them for our family Chanukah party tonight…. WELLL……. i was careful and didnt pig out on all my baked goodies, but at the end of the party i decided to have ONE cookie to see how they came out, if i should keep the recipe / make it again…
WELLLLLLL…. these cookies were BEYOND amazing !!!! i loved how soft and chewy they were …. and the flavor of the classic gingersnap with the chocolate – was incredible! love love love !!! i am DEFINITELY making these again…
So, i just wanted to say thanks for this recipe – its officially going into my recipe binder.
Happy Holidays!!!
Jenny, I’m having a hard time deciding between these and the “Blue Ribbon Gingersnap” recipe. I’ve never made gingersnaps, but they seem so perfect for Christmas I want to try them! Which would you suggest trying first? Only one other cookie I’m making has chocolate, a chocolate peppermint bark–shortbread topped with dark chocolate and candy cane pieces. So either gingersnap would work! Need your expert opinion 🙂
I made these with the spices I had on hand. My local grocery store didn’t have the roasted variety. They turned out so chewy and chocolaty and spicy…so so good! My entire family loved them. These will definitely be on the holiday cookie menu from now on!
Those cookies look absolutely delicious! Tender and chewy! Yum! Happy holidays!
ginger, cinny, molasses…and chocolate.
Are my fave 4 food groups!
Excellent work..and they are soft and chewy. That is above all else, critical 🙂
Making gingersnap cookies is a Christmas favorite in our home. I look forward to trying this receipe with the roasted spices. Yum! Thank you for sharing.
I think my mother would love these so I’m gonna make them for her. I like chewy cookies and they look good to me too!
These are adorable! I love both chocolate AND gingersnap cookies, so these are the perfect combo!
These cookies look like a great snack. I am a fan of those roasted spices-delish! Jenny, you are an awesome inspiration! xo

I LOVE the combo of sweet spicse like gingernsap and chocolate together. They look great!! I just made gingerbread brownies.
Our family loves your “food” photography, however my boys pointed out to me a funny thing about where you sliced the butter for the ingredient list! 🙂 Where would a person find the gourmet roasted spices? Merry Christmas! THANK you for posting such delectable recipes!
You make everything look and sound so glamorous. How do you get it all done? Yours is one of my top 3 blogs.
