Remember old-fashioned chewy ginger cookies? These get an extra spicy hit from crystallized ginger.

Expert Tips

For a frosty white finish, dip half of each cookie in a thin vanilla glaze or melted white chocolate. Let stand on waxed paper until coating sets.

I love these cookies, great for everyone. No glaze though. How ever I make mine without the crystallized ginger. They taste amazing.

These are amazing and worth the effort of finding crystallized ginger and chopping it finely! When I ate the first one I was blown away and my guests also the first bite say WOW! Instead of dropping I rolled each into a 1 inch ball and then flattened with the sugared cup as suggested. Also I wouldn't recommend adding a glaze or white chocolate they are sweet enough on their own, unless of course you like extra sweet, so taste one plain first!
