Homemade Weight Watchers Ginger Snaps Recipe. These crispy treats are a classic Christmas cookie. The spicy cookies smell great, and taste even better. They're quick and easy to make and done in just 20 minutes.
Prepare cookie sheets by spraying with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and 1½ cup sugar until combined and smooth.
Add in eggs and mix well.
Stir in molasses until well combined.
In another large mixing bowl, add whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, ground ginger, ground cloves, ground allspice, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg. (Add more of the spices if desired). Stir to mix well.
Slowly mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
Using a cookie scoop to portion, roll cookie dough into 60 balls. Roll the balls lightly in white sugar.
On prepared cookie sheets, arrange the balls approximately 2 inches apart.
In preheated oven, bake approximately 10 - 15 minutes, or until the tops of the cookies crack. Increase the bake time for crispy ginger snaps, or decrease for softer ginger snaps.
Place the cookie sheets on wire racks to cool.
Store in an airtight container.
