I'm allergic to nuts, so I used chocolate chips instead of walnuts.

These cookies are a bit too spicy for my taste. I would use less ginger next time.

I had some trouble finding crystallized ginger. I ended up using ground ginger instead.

The cookies didn't turn out as soft as I expected. I think I overbaked them.

These cookies are the perfect combination of soft, chewy, and gingery. I love that they're not too sweet, so you can really taste the ginger.
