Molasses Cookies

These Molasses Cookies are classic Christmas cookie that everyone loves! They are thick and chewy. No special ingredients and no chilling the dough required!

These chewy ginger molasses cookies are a must on our holiday cookie platter alongside my Gingerbread Bars and Oreo Fudge.

One of my favorite things about the holiday season is baking cookies. Ginger cookies are one of my favorites! I love to bake them, share them and eat them. Molasses and ginger combo to me is a classic one when it comes to holiday cookies. These cookies are chewy, perfectly spiced with ginger, cloves and cinnamon and have a slight crunch from the sugar coating. The smell and the taste of it make me so happy and excited for Christmas!

Spiced Shortbread Cookies Recipe – classic shortbread cookie made with half the sugar and spiced with cinnamon, cloves and ginger.

Shortbread cookies are one of my favorites to make for the holidays. They require basically only 3 ingredients ( plus add-ons ) and the flavor combinations are endless. I love a good crunchy shortbread with a cup of latte for an afternoon break.

These Spiced Shortbread Cookies have less calories than classic shortbread because half of the sugar is replaced by Stevia In The Raw®, a zero calorie sweetener made with extracts from the sweet leaves of the stevia plant, that is perfect for baking. They are absolutely delicious!

Peach Ginger Agua Fresca Recipe

Peach Ginger Agua Fresca Recipe – refreshing fruit water made with peaches, ginger and honey. Good for you and hydrating during the hot summer days.

Happy first day of Summer!

This year the heat is ahead of time and here in Kansas, the temperatures are reaching the 90s already. That definitely calls for more time by the pool and tall glasses of refreshing Peach Ginger Agua Fresca. This flavor combo is currently my favorite. Refreshing, thirst-quenching yet with a little zing. I am already using ginger in my morning smoothie to take advantage of it’s health benefits so why not add it to a refreshing fruit water. It’s honey sweetened but if you are using ripe, sweet and juicy peaches – you may not need it at all. Just place in blender with plenty of ice and blend till smooth.

Agua frescas are perfect drinks to make for the whole family. You can make them with any fruit you have on hand. My kiddos love my Strawberry Agua Frescas as well it’s pineapple version.
