Cooking Directions

  1. Beat butter, sugar, dry pudding mix and egg in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Combine remaining ingredients. Gradually add to pudding mixture, beating well after each addition; cover. Refrigerate 1 hour or until dough is firm..
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to 1/4-inch-thickness. Cut into gingerbread shapes with 4-inch cookie cutter. Place on greased baking sheets. Use a straw to make a hole near the top of each cookie to use for hanging.
  3. Bake 10 to 12 min. or until edges are lightly browned. Remove from baking sheets. Cool on wire racks. Decorate as desired

Yield: 20 servings

3. Still Hungry?

The addition of butterscotch pudding adds a delicious twist to the traditional gingerbread cookie.

Notes:

Make it Easy

To easily decorate these cookies, fill a resealable plastic bag with prepared frosting. Seal the bag and cut a small corner off the bottom of the bag. Roll down the top of the bag to squeeze the frosting over the cookies to decorate as desired.

  • Gingerbread boys & girls

    Tenn. Lady Vols Fan - December 11, 2006 12:50:58 PM PST
    This is a custom at our house to make gingerbread boys and girls and cut little holes in them and hang them on the tree.
    This recipe is so easy compared to the way I use to make them.
    Using the butterscotch pudding is a great idea.
    We just love them!
