Butterscotch Gingerbread Cookies

The butterscotch flavor comes from pudding mix!


Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
3 cups all purpose flour
2 packages (3.5 ounce each) cook-and-serve butterscotch pudding mix
3 teaspoons ginger
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

In a large bowl, cream the butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs.
Combine the flour, butterscotch pudding mix, ginger, baking powder and cinnamon. Gradually add to the creamed mixture and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for about an hour.

On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut with lightly floured cookie cutters. Place one-inch apart on ungreased baking sheets.
Bake at 350 degrees for 6-8 minutes.
Remove to wire racks to cool.
Decorate as desired.
