Okay, his perfect baking/cooking aside... I wanna know how he's so happy... I'm a teen who just shifted places and I feel like I don't belong and all that shit... Anyway... I'm not even interested in cooking or something. I only watch his videos because he looks so damn happy... It almost makes me happy.

For those of you that Don't Have Molasses or dark brown sugar (but do have some experience making a caramel) if you make a caramel using: light brown sugar + some pure maple syrup + some espresso- you will have a wonderful molasses substitute complete with the bitter notes, for those of us with an incomplete pantry XD

I love all of the smells because ginger snaps are my favorite cookie so even smelling the seasonings makes me happy.

I tried this recipe for our new years eve and everyone LOVED it! Also very easy to follow, foolproof cookie.

It's never "just food" with you. It's always about loving on your family.

When these are in my dinner table they will be gone in a *snap* 😂

I'm so excited about these. I make a sauerbraten with gingersnap gravy - and having a FRESH gingersnap just takes it to another level. Thank you for this recipe!

John, you are the BEST your personality and the good vibes 😎 your SMILE 😊 makes everyone want to enjoy baking !! Love ❤️ it!!

I made these delicious cookies yesterday much to the delight of my husband, Tom! The results were actually an exact replica of your wonderfully looking cookies and the taste was remarkable! Thanks for this recipe! These cookies are also very addictive!

THE GASP I LET OUT I LOVE GINGERSNAPS AND YOUR RECIPES ARE ALWAYS AMAZING IM SO HAPPY

You have completly saved our holidays in Europe 🙌🏾💯 thank you 🙏🏽 💕

A platter of these and a warm glass of milk would be so perfect! Santa will be happy this year!

your youtube gives me so much serotonin, your recipes are changing my life! Thank you

I LOVE the smell of molasses. My grandmother used to make homemade buttermilk biscuits, top them with butter and then she'd drizzle sorghum molasses over them. We had them along with eggs, croquettes, savory grits and fruit on Sunday mornings... takes me down memory lane.

Your recipes are the absolute best. just made these.. I also added a tablespoon of cocoa

I’ve been waiting for your ginger snap recipe. I wanted to make them but when I looked on your channel about a week ago you didn’t have any recipe. I was so sad, but here they are!!!!!!!!!!!THANK YOU!!!!!!!

Usually I imagine gingersnaps to be super crisp which I'm not a fan of, but this recipe looks delicious: crisp on the outside and soft in the inside! Will have to try it.

The part of Canada that I come from has a Ginger Snap cookie that was incredibly flat like almost a cracker......they were amazing and enjoyable dipping in my hot cup of English tea. Oh my mouth is watering.

Simply love the taste of molasses. Gingersnaps are the best.

They look so good

I just made these, this is a great recipe thanks for sharing!❤️

My favourite baker 😍😍😍you have no idea how much you inspire me 🥰thank you John!! ❤️❤️❤️

Oh, John. You're soooo preppy! 😄 If you haven't published a cookbook yet, it's about time! ❤

I made these for a friend as a birthday gift. He loved them. I did use the allspice instead of cloves. I taste tested one and it was yummy!

First try at making gingersnap cookies. They turned out great! Thanks for the video!

Hi John! I can’t believe I just put this on my grocery list to buy at the store! You know the ginger snaps in the box!🙂 well..forget that I’m making yours. Thanks❣️😋

A great cookie. To make it better for me I doubled the pepper and the grated and the candied ginger. Now it’s a wow cookie!!

My friends ! It looks so delicious. Your cooking skills are amazing. Thank you for the good food.🧡

WOW it looks absolutely delicious! Thank you for always sharing great recipes that are easy to follow and delicious. You have inspired me to start my own channel. Have a great day🌷

Gingersnaps are one of my favorite cookies I've never really found a recipe not that I've looked very hard for them you always seem to find the recipes for all sorts of things and I know that it will work out I'm glad to see that there's something that I enjoy that I hopefully can make from scratch

Love this recipie! Your videos are very clear and easy to follow. I love molasses because it was a treat described in the books written by Laura Ingles Wilder. Little House on the Prairie books. The Wilder boys had molasses in their pancakes.

John, I love watching your videos, you have taught me so much! But the other night I had a dream where I was on the Great British Bake Off and it was time for the technical to make a pie, but my dough just kept on melting but you were there and won the whole thing because you were the only one good enough to make pie dough lol

Getting me so excited for Christmas

I LOVE YOUR COOKIES!!♥️🤩🥰

Just baked a batch and they are wonderful. I'm looking forward to having some with a cup a coffee. I made them pretty small, kind of like the commercial cookies and they look and taste great. Now I'm going to have to try some of your other recipes.

Wow 52 seconds ago! And I am your BIGGEST fan!!

John u are such a talented baker . I am so excited to try this recipe.

My favorite of all time😍😍😍 Can't wait to try these Thank you so much John♡♡ Seasons greetings

Tried your recipe. As I do not have a scale, and as I was intimidated by how you said not to compress the flour, I sifted it directly into the measuring cup. Everything else went well until I tried to make the dough. It was entirely too wet and sticky, so I added flour, and more flour, and again more flour so that I could hope to form balls as you did. I must have added somewhat more that a cup of flour before I seemed to have a remotely workable mass, although still very sticky. They became easy enough to manage once I rolled them in sugar. I had no sanding sugar. The end result were huge 13+ centimeters across, soft, cake like things that looked like models for the planet Mars, and the taste, HEAVENLY! They are not what I would ever call a ginger snap, more like ginger bread, but softer. Oh, and I used margarine instead of butter, if that makes a difference. Not very sweet at all, but absolutely amazing. I'm keeping this recipe. Oh, and you asked who likes molasses. I have never been fond of the taste, and my kids hate it, but when I was growing up, my mother put it on our pancakes because syrup was too expensive. This is the first time I have tasted it since childhood. It brings back memories.

The recipe is excellent. I like the crispy outside and chewy inside 😘

The song reference at the start I love it

Made these tonight, so good! Haven't been able to get anything like this from store bought cookies

John are you in my tastebuds sir? I LITERALLY just said I wanted some gingersnaps and that I guess I have to make some! And then BOOM, my favorite bakers comes to the rescue! Thanks John!

So good

I love those cookies. I am going to start soon. Yayyyy♥️♥️♥️

Hi, John, if you want to add an extra kick to your ginger snaps, try adding 1/4 tsp cayenne. Yummy!

love your videos!!

I love your style young man.☺bless you.

You have snow? I'm so jealous. I live in Minnesota where weirdly enough we have to snow and it's 50 degrees in December.. I was born and raised in Connecticut and there's snow. It's crazy! Your cookies look wonderful. They are my husband's favorite. Will be whipping up a batch. TFS! Merry Christmas John to you and the family☃️🎁🎀🎄Don't forget to spoil those cuties

Amazing

I tried your recipe... Omg it's Devine and so light I can't stop eating them...🇿🇦

MY FAVORITE COOKIES EVER

I rarely comment on KZfaq but this needed a comment. I love mine extra spicy so I added extra spices but this cookie recipe turned out absolutely perfect. Best gingersnap I have ever tasted. Thank you for sharing.

My mom and grandparents used to make fried molasses - stinks to high heaven! I can’t eat it, but agree it’s great in recipes.

How is this first time seeing this I'm definitely going to have to give it a try

Oh baby Molasses is da BEEEEEEEEEEEEST!

I can’t wait to make these sugar babes. It’s going to rain for a week here in Brisbane Australia, I love baking when it’s raining 🌧

Gingersnaps! Thank you! ❤️

I will make that ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

WOW! that is so delicious! Love your channel! 😋

love these taste and i have already made them lol

This is gonna sound weird, but my grandmother used to put ginger snaps in her pot roast drippings. Best. Gravy. Ever.

Over 1000+ views in 15 minutes! That's amazing in the middle of the day (in the U.S.) John and his recipes are so popular! 😀

Looks soooooo good

Great video John😊😊

Wow
