Gingerbread cookies are one of the staples of the holiday season, and you can use them as an add-in in many delicious desserts. That’s exactly the idea behind some of the desserts Christina Leopold recently shared on her hit food blog Addicted to Dates.
Vegan Gingerbread Cookies
It’s impossible to work on other gingerbread-based recipes without learning to make your own gingerbread cookies. You can make them 100% vegan by using vegan butter and plant-based milk, in addition to other classic gingerbread cookie ingredients.
Gingerbread Cheesecake
Even if you’re the most avid fan of cheesecakes, we bet you’ve never tried one that looks like this. The delicious crust is filled with pecans, oats, and cranberries—but what makes this recipe so special are gingerbread cookie decorations you can use as a topping.
Gingerbread Loaf Cake
Continue your gingerbread cake adventures with this festive recipe. Gingerbread cookies are, once again, used as a topping, but this loaf cake wouldn’t be the same without its sugary glaze, reminiscent of gingerbread cookie icing, since it contains similar ingredients.
