Gingerbread Cookies
Gingerbread houses & gingerbread people are usually what you think of when you consider the festive nature of this little cookie, however these are generally way too hard to eat & mostly for show anyway. But these Paleo gingerbread cookies are perfect for show & eating. They have a nice golden hue when they come out of the oven & with a slight crunch on the outside & just the right amount of chewiness on the inside.
I'm also equally as excited about the video below as I am this amazing cookie! Watch the cute little video below, make the cookies & turn up some Christmas tunes!
