I am about to release a Christmas book in which the two sisters make gingerbread as part of their holiday traditions. It’s even called LOVE LETTERS & GINGERBREAD. I used this recipe for a reading and it’s wonderful. Easy and delicious. I’m linking my blogpost about it to this post. Thank you.

Just a quick question, how many cookies did this recipe make?

OMG!!! These are the.best gingerbread cookies I have ever tasted. The flavors explode in your mouth, then gradually morph into definite flavors. Most awesome. Best ever! Thanks!

Gorgeous! But, I wouldn’t touch ’em with a ten foot pole!
Not into putting PEPPER into my desserts!
I would leave the pepper out!
So pretty, tho!

I am touched by your mini Martha tale. This was my dream as a girl too. Well, actually it still is, if I’m being honest. The cookies look lovely and I intend to make them this holiday season, while channeling my inner Martha. Thanks for sharing your talents.

i made these the other day! we dont really get martha shows over here, so i dont know much about her, but i still love her. even if all i knew was that she was the one who invented this recipe, i’d still think she was an angel from heaven. i didnt have the utensils or decorations required for the snowflakes so just went gingerbread men. i didnt think anyone could make snowflakes as pretty as hers but i now stand corrected, beautiful!

I just shared this on Facebook. I’m a dedicated Martha fan, but I was even more touched by your early days as a magazine publisher – I was a newspaper editor at age 10 or so – The Reporting Four – recipes, movie reviews, sports. The cookies look beautiful.

[…] 1). The crust for the Gingerbread Tart is the same recipe one would use for gingerbread cookies. So, if you really wanted to cook to impress you could create a batch of cookies and use the scraps for the tart we will be using. Click here for Ashley’s Gingerbread cookie recipe: […]

darling, you are perfect as you are! and that’s why we all love you and follow you and your wonderful coking-baking adventures. Well, I do.

(Oh, and I’m quite sure that if THE Martha checks these cookies she will be so damn proud of you.)

I too aspire(d) to be Martha! I’ve got nearly 10 years of Martha Stewart Living and I always pull out all the old issues around holidays, just so see what was done before. Beautiful cookies 🙂

I always wanted to be Martha as well. But then I grew up and realized that she has a staff of at least 100 people creating her “perfection”. Kind of like when you grow up and realize that cover girls aren’t really that perfect…they are air brushed, photoshopped, etc. But I agree with Katherine@NightOwlChef that you’ve become your own unique version of Martha. Your website is so beautiful and inspirational.

Well, judging by your beautiful and inspirational blog, I think you’ve become your own version of Martha and definitely a success in your own right – minus the tedium of ironing sheets and organizing a gift wrapping station! The photos above and testament by Alice speak to that. 🙂

I once wanted to be Martha, too – but then I settled for my own, semi-wonderful life and the pleasure of cooking her recipes. I even baked these cookies a few years ago when they were first in her magazine! They were perfectly spicy and delicious – what a great recipe, eh?! However, mine weren’t NEARLY as pretty as yours; I have no illusions of being the next Martha, haha!
