You guys… these ginger cookies with white icing (buttermilk!!) are AMAZING.

So, here’s a little story.  I have this sugar cookie recipe that I really love (link at the bottom of this post)… they’re soft, chewy, and super addicting.  I had a sweet reader try them, liked them, then mentioned that if I love those, I will surely love her Gingersnap Cookie recipe.  Just like the sugar cookies, these Gingersnap Cookies are soft, chewy, and so amazing.  I’m soooo glad she sent me this recipe!  They’re definitely a new go-to.  The only thing I added was the buttercream frosting on top (the same frosting used on the sugar cookies)… it really took it up a notch and when I make them again, the frosting is a FOR SURE.

These Gingersnap Cookies are out of this world! They're soft, chewy, and the addition of the Buttercream Frosting really takes them to another level! www.orsoshesays.com

I hope you love them too!
