Thrifty Pals is having a cookie exchange on Dec. 1, 2010 and you are invited! Now I really would like if you all could come to my house (I love company!), but I know that is impossible. So this cookie exchange will be done online.
Here's how it works. You comment that you are accepting our invitation. Then email us your cookie recipe. We will post all the recipes on Dec. 2. My younger sister and I will get together before Christmas and make your cookies.
What do you think? Are you joining us for this cookie exchange?

Dipped Ginger Cookies
Ingredients:
2 c sugar
1 1/2c oil
2 eggs
1/2c molasses
1 Tbsp ground ginger
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp salt
4 tsp baking powder
4 c flour
extra sugar
white chocolate or vanilla almond bark
Directions:
Combine sugar and oil. Stir in eggs, one at a time. Stir in molasses. Stir in ginger, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in baking powder. Stir in flour. Roll out 3/4" balls. Roll balls in sugar and place on a greased cookie sheet.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Cookies will still be soft. Allow them to rest on warm cookie sheet for two minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.
To dip cookies, melt squares (about 3 at a time) in a double boiler (a glass bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water). Dip cookies in halfway and shake off excess chocolate. Place on waxed paper. Allow chocolate to set or put pan in refrigerator to set.
