Ginger spice cookies
6 Jan
So what if the holidays are over? It’s never too late for ginger spice cookies!
The recipe called for crystalized ginger and molasses. I’ve never cooked with either of those ingredients before so it was very interesting! The “crystalized” ginger had a sugar coating and was pretty to look at. Doesn’t it remind you of rock candy? It gives the cookie a subtle ginger flavor.
I imagine using shortening would have contributed to the texture of the cookies, making them more chewy than cake-like. I didn’t think it was super important, so I omitted it. I’ll leave it up to your discretion.
Try these cookies! They’re super delicious!
