I have an awesome RL gingerbread recipe (nice and moist, and tender with a good molasses-ginger taste - I'll see if I can dig it up)...but alas all my cookies in game look well...cookie cutterish.


Gingerbread man cookies in game on a pan would be a great holiday deco item!

Ha! I did not know that cookies, and a gingerbread man recipe was one of the holiday gifts! If we get those for real, I surely will be baking them.

That is what I meant - after I saw Spree's other post about Test Center.


Now...I wonder where one obtains fresh ginger to make the cookies?

*edit* ah I see - from NPC baker!

OK, so far I've seen these gingerbread man messages:

You feel like you could eat as much as you want!

Run, run as fast as you can, you can't catch me, I'm the gingerbread man!

Please don't eat me! *whimper*

No, no I'm really made of poison! Really!

Please. No! I have ginger-kids!

Noooo!

Not the face!

Ahhhhhhh! My foot's gone!

Anyone who uses the words "low carbs" in conjunction with describing "cookies" is worthy of death.

Found it!

Gingerbread cookies

3 cups sifted all purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1-1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1-1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 cup light molasses (I used Grandma brand)
1/2 cup melted butter (you can use margarine if you MUST...I used butter)
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten

Mix all dry ingredients EXCEPT sugar, in a large bowl
Combine molasses, melted butter, &amp; sugar in another, smaller bowl (not the egg!)

Add the wet mixture in portions to the dry, stirring until thoroughly blended (dough will be stiff &amp; crumbly at this stage)

Slowly add the beaten egg, stirring to form a smooth dough

Divide dough in half, place each half between wax paper sheets and flatten; refrigerate dough at least 30 min. and up to 24 hours.

When ready to bake, roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch. Cut out shapes with cookie cutter. (Note: when you collect the scraps to roll out again, try to work the dough as little as possible - the more you work the dough, the tougher the baked cookies will be).

Bake 8 - 10 min. at 350 degrees F, on a lightly greased regular cookie sheet. (My oven is old, and heats rather unevenly, so I put a shallow pan with some water on the bottom rack while I baked the cookies, which helped them cook more evenly and avoided hot spots/overdone edges - you can also spread a sheet of aluminum foil over the bottom rack before you preheat the oven, if you have the same type of problem.)

I made plain gingerbread rounds, but you can ice the baked cookies using a mixture of 1-1/4 cups confectioner's sugar and 1/4 cup cold milk, and decorate them with fruit bits.

Made a couple of small corrections in the procedure...such as mix all dry ingredients EXCEPT the sugar, which is usually dry.
