These Big & Soft Paleo Ginger Molasses Cookies certainly live up to their name. They are big, and so soft they nearly melt in your mouth. Bet you can’t eat just one!

Oh goodness… I can’t believe it’s December! What happened to November?!

In less than 2 weeks AJ and I will celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary, and then in 2 1/2 weeks it will be Christmas. It’s all coming so fast – time needs to slow down so I can get done what I want to! And actually, as far as shopping is concerned, I’m just about done; I just want more time time to fit in all of the craft and baking projects. 😉

I have a weakness for cookies… especially ones of the ginger molasses variety (they taste SO good dunked in a cup of black coffee!).

So here’s the details on these cookies:

These Big & Soft Paleo Ginger Molasses Cookies are great any time of year, but I especially enjoy them around the holidays.

The distinct molasses and spicy ginger flavors blend so well together, and while I do like the harder ginger snap cookies, there’s something equally amazing about the big and soft ginger molasses cookies (you know what I mean?).

These cookies are so incredibly soft… they quite literally melt in your mouth. Before you know it, friends will be begging you for the recipe.

I prefer these cookies a bit more on the “well done” side. Even still, these cookies will still remain soft.

OH! Speaking of cookies… my sweet and talented friend, Jeanine, of The Baking Beauties, is offering a FREE Gluten Free Cookie E-book as a Christmas present to her readers (how awesome is that??!). You can download the E-book and find out more information about it by clicking HERE.
