NYC Style Gingerbread Cookies
Heya, Starbucks have stopped selling pumpkin spice and we have made way for toffee nut and gingerbread. It's officially November! November is full of my favourite recipes. Those wonderful festive smells incorporating ginger and cinnamon into everything. Having said this, I'm not a massive fan of gingerbread men as I find them to crunchy (don't ask). So when I saw these chewy looking gingerbread cookies at M&S I couldn't wait to make my own version. At just 22p per cookie (as of Aldi produce), these are a cheap and easy wintery bake to make whether a student trying to impress your housemates or a aspiring baking trying to impress your family. NYC cookies often totally omit caster sugar (which makes cookies crunchy) instead adding only brown sugar (the chewy agent) in order to get the perfect squishy cookie with a shell crispy outside but a slightly gooier inside. This spice blend (ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg) is the classic "gingerbread" blend and can be used
