# Marranitos
A tasty gingerbread-like cookie from Mexico.
# Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups brown sugar
- 1/4 cup ( ~40g ) shortening
2021-04-28 11:12:47 -04:00
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup ( 60ml ) milk
2021-04-28 11:12:47 -04:00
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 cup molasses
- 6 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 egg (beaten)
# Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350F (175C)
- In a large bowl, cream together brown sugar and shortening until smooth. Mix in 1 egg, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Stir in the baking soda, cinnamon, and molasses. Mix in flour until the dough is stiff enough to roll out.
- Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into cookies using a pig shaped cookie cutter. Place cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Brush the remaining beaten egg over the tops of the cookies.
- Bake for 15 to 17 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the centers of the cookies appear dry and edges are lightly browned.
- Let the cookies cool for 5-7 minutes. Enjoy!
