Nice easy cookie with a ginger bit in it. My boys love spice. Note: I started with 1 tsp of ginger & Cinnamon; My kids said not enough kick , we went to 2 tbsp, and they were happy.

Yum! My son loves cinnamon and ginger.


Sounds great! I love ginger cookies too! I have a favorite recipe that I use (not posted on here), but I will have to give yours a try for some variety.


Please give it a try, I am not much of a ginger fan, so I have been playing with the amount of ginger and cinniman. I still don't know if I am satified with it.


These cookies are excellent! I just made them this weekend and they are delicious! I think the dough has such a nice texture and is so easy to work with! They have my 5! Thanks for posting!


Thank you grandmacooks for the 5... :)


Going to make some ginger breadmen and women....mmmm....thanks!! Roxy


These sound good. Does anybody have the recipe for the ginger cookies that Clark's Baker in London makes? They are very gingery, spicy and buttery. The best I have ever eaten. They must use black pepper in them. Would love to have the recipe!
