Cinnamon Snaps Recipe Card - A Cinnamon Lovers Cookie
Report
Here is a 100+ year old fashioned family recipe for cinnamon snaps. You will love this molasses spice cookie with a nice crunch! These are very similar to ginger snaps so if you are a cinnamon fan and not so much for ginger this is the cookie for you! Dunk these in your tea, so good!

Ingredients
- 4-5 cups flour sifted, all purpose
- 1 cup butter softened (room temperature), unsalted
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup molasses
- 2 tsp. baking soda
- 2 Tbs. water warm
- 1 Tbs. cloves ground
- 1 Tbs. cinnamon I love Vietnamese cinnamon!
- 1 tsp. salt
Instructions
