These are fancy enough for a Christmas bake swap or to package up in little boxes and give as gifts. Whip up a batch and enjoy the warm, aromatic spice flavors.
Sticky dough: To prevent the dough from sticking, lightly flour your work surface and rolling pin when rolling out the dough.
Cookie thickness: Adjust the thickness of the rolled-out dough to your liking. Thicker cookies will be softer, while thinner ones will be crisper.
Softer cookies: If you prefer a softer cookie, reduce the baking time slightly to keep the cookies chewy in the center.
Made a mistake with braiding? Ensure you're using evenly-sized strips. If you have thick ones and skinny ones, the lattice design won’t look good. If the strips go wrong, you can just roll the dough back out and try again.
