If you are very careful and don't handle it much I think it might work but the edges may crack a bit. I just made them as drop/shape cookies and got those nice cracked edges like my grandmother's recipe used to make. But I would say it is worth a try. I may try it too!Kithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00871371602936294007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852827703279494520.post-48170818666116845172015-12-21T17:33:37.843-05:002015-12-21T17:33:37.843-05:00These are awesome.

Perfect amount of sweetness (I have to cut half the sugar out of most recipes, even Paleo ones), perfect texture--chewy on the inside with that perfect almost-crunch right when you bite through.

I just made these because I wanted to do a cookie and tree decorating night with my kiddo tonight ... she's getting mainstream sugar cookies but I didn't want to be left out ;) I ate one to taste-test and I'm struggling not to polish them off before dinner!

At least, I know I do. My life simply wouldn't be complete without Christmas decorations. <br /><br />Just like I think my life isn't complete for never having had proper gingerbread. I know, so wrong, right? I might need to fix this soon. Perhaps these cookies would fit the bill just fine. They sure look like they would to me. Badass, you say? I'm all for that! <br /><br />Now please, get busy decorating that apartment of yours. Get that stuff out of the attic and put it to good use. :) Sonia!
