Looking for a festive and delicious holiday treat? Look no further than these Chocolate Drizzled Gingerbread Coins! These tasty cookies are the perfect combination of spicy gingerbread and rich chocolate, making them a crowd-pleaser for any holiday gathering.
To make these cookies, you'll need the following ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground cloves
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup molasses
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 tsp vegetable oil
This recipe makes about 24 cookies, depending on the size of your cookie cutter.
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves.
In a separate large bowl, beat the butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy. Add in the molasses, egg, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined. Gradually add in the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use a small cookie cutter to cut out circles, and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cookies are cooled, melt the chocolate chips and vegetable oil together in a small bowl in the microwave or over a double boiler. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cookies in a zigzag pattern. Let the chocolate set before serving.
These Chocolate Drizzled Gingerbread Coins are the perfect holiday treat for any occasion. They're soft and chewy with just the right amount of spice, and the chocolate drizzle adds a touch of sweetness that's hard to resist. Enjoy them with a cup of hot cocoa or a glass of milk for the ultimate holiday indulgence.
