Ingredients Quantity
All-purpose flour 4 cups
Ground ginger 2 teaspoons
Ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon
Ground cloves 1/2 teaspoon
Baking soda 1 teaspoon
Salt 1/2 teaspoon
Unsalted butter 1 cup (softened)
Brown sugar 1 cup (packed)
Egg 1 large
Molasses 1/2 cup
Vanilla extract 1 teaspoon
Royal icing (for decoration) As needed
Edible decorations (optional) As needed

Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
  2. Cream Butter and Sugar: In another bowl, use a handheld or stand mixer to cream the softened butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Incorporate Egg and Molasses: Add the egg, molasses, and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix until everything is well blended.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet mixture, about one cup at a time. Mix on low speed until the dough begins to form. It will be a bit sticky.
  5. Chill the Dough: Divide the dough into two halves, form each half into a disk, and wrap them in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results. This will make it easier to roll out the dough.
  6. Preheat Oven: When ready to bake, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  7. Roll Out Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disk of dough to about 1/4-inch thick. Use cookie cutters to cut out bride and groom shapes.
  8. Bake Cookies: Place the cut-out cookies on the prepared baking sheets, about 1 inch apart, and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are firm but not darkened. Remove from the oven and let cool on the sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Decorate: Once the cookies are completely cooled, use royal icing to decorate them as brides and grooms, adding details like dresses, tuxedos, and any other embellishments you desire. Let the decorated cookies sit until the icing hardens.
  10. Serve or Store: Once the icing is dry, serve your beautiful Christmas Wedding Cookies at your holiday gathering or package them as delightful gifts for friends and family. Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container. Enjoy!

  8. Bake Cookies: Place the cut-out cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
