    Colonial Williamsburg's Gingerbread Cookies Recipe (makes roughly 40-50 small cookies)
    1 cup sugar
    4 cups of unbleached flour
    2 teaspoons ginger
    1 teaspoon nutmeg
    1 teaspoon cinnamon
    1/2 teaspoon salt (or use salted butter)
    1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
    1 cup butter, melted
    1/2 cup evaporated milk
    1 cup unsulfured molasses
    a dash of vanilla extract
    a dash of lemon extract
    Combine the sugar, ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon, baking soda and salt in a bowl. Mix well. Add the melted butter, evaporated milk, molasses and extracts. Mix well. Add the flour 1 cup at a time, stirring all the while. The dough will be stiff and hard to mix which is normal for gingerbread. If you find that it is too sticky to roll out add up to 1/2 cup of additional flour. Roll out on a floured sugar until it is 1/4 inch thick. Cut out or cut and stamp. Bake in greased cookie sheets in a preheated oven. Bake at 375 degrees for 10 minutes. Be careful as it's easy to overcook gingerbread. They really only need 10 minutes. Allow to cool and set for at least 5 minutes before handling.
    *This recipe has definitely been adapted for the modern cook due to the addition of evaporated milk, baking soda and vanilla extract (which existed pre 1830 but was extremely expensive therefore uncommon). This recipe is more of a homage to the past than an accurate historical recipe. We've made a few other gingerbread recipes taken from historical cookbooks if you are looking for an accurate recipe. You may find them linked below. ♥

    Videos featuring housekeeping and homemaking would also be enjoyed! No indoor plumbing would make for some challenges. I've really enjoyed getting an understanding of the cooking tools and methods used in the 1800s.

    Pretty much what my Mom called molasses cookies. She used to bake the cut out cookies at Christmas and we would decorate them with cinnamon candies,raisins and white icing. The aroma in the kitchen was dreamy. She grew up during the depression and gingerbread was a Eastern Ky. mountain favorite. One recipe was a gingerbread baked in a pan, like cake. Her grandmother lived in an old log house,one room central, With a big hearth and always a pot of beans cooking,then you went out on a porch and there were steps on either end that went to separate rooms upstairs, one for the girls and one for the boys. Me and my brother loved the stories my Mom would tell,and sometimes she'd sing a song about a Mail train wreck that happened long ago in 1903 in Virginia, called the Wreck of Old 97.🍪🍬🍭🎄

    In the late 50's, when I was at primary (elementary/prep) school, I loved to get home (walking - no school run) and discover what mam had baked for me. This has brought back wonderful, loving memories.

    I was so surprised to see the gingerbread man cookie cutter- I grew up with the exact same one. My mother’s family are genetically Irish Scottish and English and were true Yankee cooks having lived in Cape Cod in Ma since they came over here. Our family always cooked with molasses, making gingerbreads both cake and cookies and other things like what was know as Indian Pudding a cornmeal and molasses baked “pudding”. The cookie cutter used in the video has been in our family as long as I can remember, same size, same shape of his head hands and feet. I never knew it was a traditional design although I should have guessed. Thank you for your relaxing, calm and informative content. Be well everyone 🥰

    My question is if this lovely couple live full time in their little cabin, I’m jealous by the way, or do they just use it for educational/TH-cam videos. Along with how hard is it to find everything you use in the cabin. From your cooking ingredients to the items like candles, measuring cups, and such.

    Your cute little cabin looks amazing adorned in christmas decorations, it's like it was made for them! The gingerbread man is huge lol. Loved seeing the cups, I've never seen ones like those! I'd always heard people just used a drinking cup or tea cup. Maybe that was common in the poorer houses and these are for the more wealthy?
