Recipe



Twin Ginger Shortbread Cookies
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.


In large bowl of an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.


Add crystallized ginger, ginger, and glazed walnuts; mix until incorporated. Add flour and salt; mix on low speed until mixture forms a dough.


Using hands, make 1 1/2 inch balls and place 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Using fingers press balls into 1/3 inch thick circles. Bake until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.


Let cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack and let cool completely. Store in an airtight container.


Yield: about 2 dozen cookies.
