CLASSIC AUNT SALLY (OR SALLY ANN) COOKIES



Classic Aunt Sally (Or Sally Ann) Cookies image

These are wonderful not-too-sweet gingerbread-like cookies. The icing sets up like royal, except it is soft inside the hardened shell. They freeze great, and are terrific for gift-giving, as they package beautifully. I make them for Halloween in the shape of bats and covered with orange sprinkles and for thanksgiving as leaves with no sprinkles.

Time 1h30m

Yield 48 cookies, 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup shortening (not butter)
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 cup molasses
1 cup buttermilk
5 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons baking soda
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon clove
1 tablespoon ginger
1 (1/4 ounce) envelope plain gelatin
4 cups powdered sugar
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup cold water

Steps:

  • Cream shortening and sugar, add molasses and eggs and buttermilk.
  • Mix dry ingredients thoroughly, then add to creamed mixture.
  • Refrigerate for an hour or so, until slightly firm.
  • Roll out at about 1/4" (thicker for more cakelike cookies, thinner for crispier ones - they're good both ways).
  • Cut out (traditionally with a SPAM can, but to each her own).
  • Bake at 325 for about 12-15 minutes.
  • When cookies are cool, whip up the icing.
  • In saucepan, dissolve gelatin in cold water.
  • Bring to a boil and simmer for about 10 minutes.
  • While simmering, add 3 C powdered sugar to a large straight-sided bowl and measure in soda. Stir.
  • Pour hot liquid into sugar mixture and whisk. Add vanilla. Lumps are not good.
  • If 3 C of powdered sugar is enough to produce a almost-set pudding-like icing, it is read. If it seems thin, add another cup and whisk inches.
  • Take cooled cookies and dip the tops into the icing, wiping off excess on side of bowl.
  • Set on wax paper until icing is hard.

AUNT MABEL'S SUPER EASY GINGERBREAD COOKIES



Aunt Mabel's Super Easy Gingerbread Cookies image

This was handed down by my great aunt. This is super easy and you can mix the dry ingredients and put them into a quart jar so they are ready when you want to make gingerbread; easy as a mix, and so much better. Whipped cream on each serving is a good addition.

  • In a large bowl using a hand-held mixer or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter for 1 minute on medium speed until completely smooth and creamy. Add the brown sugar and molasses and beat on medium high speed until combined and creamy-looking. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. Next, beat in egg and vanilla on high speed for 2 full minutes. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. The butter may separate; that’s ok.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, salt, ginger, cinnamon, allspice, and cloves together until combined. On low speed, slowly mix into the wet ingredients until combined. The cookie dough will be quite thick and slightly sticky. Divide dough in half and place each onto a large piece of plastic wrap. Wrap each up tightly and pat down to create a disc shape. Please see photo and description above in my post. Chill discs for at least 3 hours and up to 3 days. Chilling is mandatory for this cookie dough. I always chill mine overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line 2-3 large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. (Always recommended for cookies.) Set aside.
  • Remove 1 disc of chilled cookie dough from the refrigerator. Generously flour a work surface, as well as your hands and the rolling pin. Roll out disc until 1/4-inch thick. Tips for rolling– the dough may crack and be crumbly as you roll. What’s helpful is picking it up and rotating it as you go. Additionally, you can use your fingers to help meld the cracking edges back together. The first few rolls are always the hardest since the dough is so stiff, but re-rolling the scraps is much easier. Cut into shapes. Place shapes 1 inch apart on prepared baking sheets. Re-roll dough scraps until all the dough is shaped. Repeat with remaining disc of dough.
