These are great. I can't handle all the gums they put in gluten free foods and these are fabulouse with out them. I did not have blackstrap molasses and they stop selling it at my local grocery store so I used regular molasses. I don't know if it makes a difference but these are GREAT! Thanks katii.

Great tasting cookie,My ginger was old so next time will get fresher ginger to make a gingery flavor, but enjoyed the flavor I ended up with today.My only change was I made a glaze with 2 egg whites and two cups powdered sugar and spooned over the tops. My only negative comment is directions not really clear, first 8 ingred. then mentioned last two but 9th and 10th never mentioned in directions. I just put all in bowl in order listed and mixed well. Came out great. <br/>Thanks for great cookies, next time maybe will try with raisins....

Another delicious cookie, Katii. I didn't have enough blackstrap, so used regular, and I used the coffee choice. They spread out more than I was expecting in the oven, and were indeed soft and very tender. This made a lot of cookies, so I sandwiched some of them with cream cheese icing, and made g.f. whoopie pies. I think that next time I might add in a bit of ground white pepper, and a little more ginger. these are nicely flavored as written though. Thank you for this one!

How I rate recipes:
5 star - WOW! This recipe was really good and exceeded my expectations. I made no or little changes to the recipe and will definitely make it again.
4 star - A very good recipe. I quite enjoyed it, but had to make a few changes here and there. All in all, it met my expectations. I will probably make it again.
3 star - An ok recipe. I liked it a bit, but had to make major changes. It may have a good flavour, but the texture was off or something. Usually I don't make three star recipes again.
2 star - I didn't enjoy this recipe. The flavour and texture was WAY off and so were the directions. I will not make this recipe again.
1 star - I don't give one stars! I think they are too mean!
