Crisp, tasty and a lot of fun to make. I made the blonde version which makes them a little more mild for kids who don't like the strong flavor of molasses. Half of them are going to the school bake sale. I found them to stick a little and burn on the bottom if you don't get them off the pan. Get them off the pan quickly - a metal spatula is a must if you are trying to keep their shape.
