Eggless Gingerbread Cookies that are soft, chewy and oh so easy to bake and enjoy. These cookies are packed with all of your favourite fall spices. I made these gingerbread cookies without molasses.
Bake these for the holidays and share it as beautifully packed edible gifts with your friends and family.
Usually I make these cookies using the Molasses substitute that I make around the holiday season, so that I can use it in my baking. But since I have not been home a lot this season, I decided to skip using molasses substitute and went with the most easiest substitute.
I have used my hand mixer to cream the butter and raw cane sugar together because, well I had it but rarely use it and wanted to make sure that it is still up and running. If you do not have one, then just use a whisk and do it manually.
Why you need to bake these gingerbread cookies?

What other flavors can I use?

If you like coffee flavour, than you can add in good quality dark coffee while adding the liquid ingredients.
Can I bake these cookies Vegan?
Yes of course. You can use vegan butter in the place of good old butter.
What is the shelf life of these cookies?
Seriously… Its cookies and rarely do I need to store it for longer than 2 days as they get over by then. But they must stay fresh for at least a week.
