White Chocolate Gingersnap Cookies

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make White Chocolate Gingersnap Cookies.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C), setting the stage for some delicious baking.

2. Step 2

   In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of sugar, canola oil, molasses, and a pinch of kosher salt.

3. Step 3

   Mix these ingredients together until they’re beautifully blended and creamy.

4. Step 4

   Next, add the eggs one at a time, making sure to mix thoroughly after each addition to create a rich, smooth batter.

5. Step 5

   In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, ground ginger, and ground cinnamon.

6. Step 6

   Gradually incorporate this dry mixture into your creamed mixture, being gentle to avoid overmixing.

7. Step 7

   Don’t forget to scrape down the sides of the bowl as you go to ensure everything is well combined.

8. Step 8

   Now it’s time to shape your cookies! Roll the dough into 1-inch balls, and then roll each ball in some extra sugar for a delightful sweet coating.

9. Step 9

   Place these sugar-coated balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, giving them a little space to spread out.

10. Step 10

    Bake them in your preheated oven for about 10 to 12 minutes, and remember to rotate the baking sheet halfway through for even baking.

11. Step 11

    Keep an eye on them; you want the edges to be set while the centers stay soft and chewy.

12. Step 12

    Once they’re done, quickly remove the parchment paper from the baking sheet to prevent further baking.

13. Step 13

    Let the cookies cool for about 2 minutes on the sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

14. Step 14

    While your cookies are cooling, let’s prepare a luscious white chocolate drizzle.

15. Step 15

    Place white chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler over simmering water.

16. Step 16

    Stir frequently, using a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides and prevent scorching, until the chocolate is melted and smooth, which should take about 5 minutes.

17. Step 17

    Once your cookies are cool, drizzle the melted white chocolate over them, and immediately sprinkle with chopped crystallized ginger for a delightful finishing touch.

18. Step 18

    This adds a lovely burst of flavor and a beautiful presentation.
