I can’t believe that Christmas has already come and gone. So much build up and preparation, and then its gone before you know it. As much as I complain about it being such an anticlimactic holiday I actually love the baking and shopping, and all of the giddiness that goes along with this nostalgic holiday. One of my favorite gifts to give and receive are baked goods. I don’t know if I can even count how many cookies I baked and ate over the past month :)

Jen, the Beantown Baker, had a wonderful time participating in the 12 Days of Cookies blog event. Her first, and probably her husband’s favorite cookies were these cute little Lumberjacks. Made with molasses, ginger, and cinnamon these cookies have a nice chewy texture and a warm holiday aroma. These cookies can be quite dangerous since they are just the right size and you can easily lose track of how many you’ve eaten! Jen says she has no doubt that her husband would eat the entire batch if she let him!

If you have already had your fill of holiday cookies be sure to file Jen’s delicious lumberjacks away for next year’s baking!
