OK, you guys. I seriously love the Gingerbread recipe I acquired from my Pre-School teacher, Mrs. Lucy. It is the best one out there! I really hope that you’ll try them by themselves. But, I also hope that you’ll try them in milkshake form! The same year that my husband and I started bouncing out all our fun Christmas beverages like Snow White Floats and Rosemary Clooney Floats, we found that we could make Gingerbread Milk Shakes!!! My oh my. These things are fantastic. Terribly fattening I’m sure, but oh so worth the splurge! I cannot recommend these highly enough. Personally, I think Santa would prefer a Gingerbread Milk Shake over milk and cookies. Why don’t you give them a whirl?
