Couldn't find my old recipe that worked perfect everytime-this recipe did not work for me --maybe should have refrigerated the dough first?--flat, unattractive cookies~ nothing like the picture!

Very good! They were puffy, chewy and tasty. I went with the 1tsp ginger and that was plenty strong along with the 1/4 extra flour. Will definitely make these again!

These cookies are dee-licious! I baked them for a friend who is a diabetic, so I substituted Splendor for the sugar. I also took the advice from a couple of other reviews and decrease the amount of ginger to 1 teaspoon and increased the flour to 2 1/4 cups. I also flatten them out a little before putting them in the oven. The came out looking just like the picture. They melted in my mouth!!
