Recipe Introduction


Helpful hints: I find if I add a little water and mix with my hands the cookies turn out moister and are easier to deal with. I up the amount of ginger to our taste. A triple recipe yields about 4 1/2 dozen. Also, these freeze very well and can be eaten directly out of the freeze
