The bottom is melted milk chocolate dipped in green cake crumb moss (optional) ½ cup unsalted butter - softened (or shortening) ⅔ cup light brown sugar 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting 1 tablespoon ground ginger 1 ½ tablespoon ground cinnamon ⅛ teaspoon salt 1/2 cup heavy cream (or any milk) ½ cup molasses Add the flour, ginger, cinnamon, and salt to a large mixing bowl. Sift to combine. Set aside. Cream together the butter and the sugar with your electric mixer until just combined. Scrape down the sides. Add the milk and molasses and stir on low until well incorporated. Add in the flour slowly. I like to use a large spoon and add a spoonful at a time until there’s no flour left. Stop periodically to scrape the side of the bowl to make sure everything is incorporated evenly. The dough should be dry but not crumbly. If it appears too crumbly simply add a splash of heavy cream or milk. Pull dough out of the mixer and wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. When ready to bake: Preheat the oven to 350°f. Shape small balls of dough into mushroom caps and mushroom stems. Place on a parchment lined cookie sheet and bake until just set - usually 8-10 minutes. Once cooled melt white chocolate and use to hood the cap and stem together. Dip the cookie caps in easy glaze (recipe below). 🍪Easy glaze 1 cup confectionery sugar 1 1/2 tablespoons heavy cream Food safe coloring Mix together and store in an air tight container in the fridge until ready to use! #cookiesofinstagram #cookiedecorating #christmasbaking #gingerbreadart #gingerbread #mushroomart #cookiedesign #christmascookies ## Stats - **Views:** 75,995 - **Likes:** 10,984 - **Shares:** 0 - **Comments:** 178 ## Tags mushroomart, gingerbread, cookiesofinstagram, gingerbreadart, christmascookies, christmasbaking, cookiedecorating, cookiedesign --- Copyright (c) Gondola
