During the holiday season, one holiday dessert favorite that comes to mind are gingerbread men or cookies. However, I tend to favor chewy cookies instead. So, when I came across a recipe for a chewy gingerbread inspired cookie, I knew I had to adapt it! This Molasses Crinkle cookie recipe literally tastes like a gingerbread man and a sugar cookie lady had a beautiful cookie baby lol!
