Chewy Crystalized Ginger Cookies
These lovely, chewy ginger cookies stay fresh and soft for at least a week after baking – which makes them an excellent bake-ahead option for the holidays (or any time of year, really).

While everyone else goes nuts for pumpkin spice, for me the first day of fall means it’s seasonally appropriate to bust out the molasses. Because gingerbread is everything.
Due to a pan-related mishap (silicone bundt pans are officially dead to me), this cake turned out a bit homely. But it proved that looks can be deceiving – the inside is just lovely.
These are my FAVORITE gingersnap-esque cookies. I won’t call them gingersnaps ’cause they don’t snap. If you bake them right, they’re nice and soft and chewy and amazing. And they were the perfect “sweet appetizer” for Thanksgiving.
The jury is out on these cookies from Christina Tosi’s Milk Bar Life cookbook. My brother outright spat them in the sink, my mom who never throws anything away stuck the leftovers in the freezer, and (not to stereotype, these are the facts) my Jewish friends loved them.
