Chewy Ginger Cookies

Recipe Introduction


If you like the spiciness of a ginger snap combined with the chewiness of a classic molasses cookie, these old fashioned ginger cookies are for you. Redolent with cinnamon and plenty of ginger, they�ll remind you of cookies your grandmother made.

Best of all, the cookie dough is made with cold butter. So, there�s no waiting for it to soften. A generous roll in granulated sugar gives these cookies a crackling top that makes them a beautiful addition to any cookie plate. By Lori & Paul
