Minnie’s Gingerbread Cookies is a simple two-star dish that can be made using one Ginger and one Wheat. You only need two ingredients to make this simple meal, so as long as you know how to get them, this is one of the easiest dishes you can make.

How to get Ginger in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Ginger can be found growing in the wild around the Forgotten Lands biome. This is a decently tough area to access since you have to spend 7,000 Dreamlight to access the Sunlit Plateau and then another 15,000 Dreamlight to enter the Forgotten Lands. You can only get to the Forgotten Lands through the Sunlit Plateau, so unlocking both is a requirement if you want to get Ginger.

Up to 10 Ginger can be present throughout the Forgotten Lands biome at once. If you want more to spawn, you have to pick the Ginger that’s available. The time it takes Ginger to respawn varies, so it could be anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours before you find more around the area after you pick this ingredient.

Ginger can be pretty tricky to spot among the tall purple grass throughout the Forgotten Lands biome. You’re looking for brown dirt piles that have a long green leaf sticking up out of them. If you’re having trouble finding it, spending Mist at an Ancient Vacuum in the area makes the process a lot easier. You need A Rift in Time to access this special machine though.

How to get Wheat in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Wheat is a crop you must plant, grow, and harvest yourself in DDV. You can purchase Wheat Seeds from Goofy’s Stall in the Dazzle Beach biome for just one Star Coin, so it’s super affordable and easy to stock up on.

After it has been planted and watered, Wheat only takes one minute to grow. It’s also a staple ingredient in lots of other recipes like Blueberry Pie, Halloween Gingerbread Cookies, and Cannolis, so consider stocking up on it while you’re already working on growing some for this dish.

Once you’ve gathered up the two necessary ingredients for this dish, toss them into a pot at any cooking station. Spend one Coal Ore to officially whip up a serving of Minnie’s Gingerbread Cookies.
