REGENCY GINGER CRISPS
This recipe comes from the book "Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder" by Joanne Fluke. I read the book while on vacation this summer. I want to send the book to my partner in the Used Media Swap, I am saving the recipe here so I can try it later. If you try this recipe before me, please leave a review & let me know how it tastes. By the way, the book was quite fun to read. Another note: I guessed on the serving sizes & will amend once I use this recipe. It just looks too good not to share. Prep time does not include refrigeration time.

TORTILLA COOKIE CRISPS
Created from tortilla chips which were crushed.At Christmas time, recipe is called Rummy Tortilla Cookie Crisps with rum added. They are crispy, crunchy and soft.10 minutes for soft, 12 minutes for crispy. Note: If you add more brown sugar plus spices and white chocolate chips as the reviewer stated, this will be a crisper sweeter cookie. I really appreciated the comments, but watch...being flatter, they will burn easily. I drizzle a white glaze on top for gift giving.

Steps:
- In mixing bowl, add the first six ingredients. Beat on low speed about 2 minutes, then medium speed until blended.
- In another mixing bowl, add flour, soda and walnuts. Mix well.
- Add flour mixture to sugar egg mixture in two portions. Mix after each addition.
- Take out beaters.
- Add crushed tortillas two cups at a time. Mix with spoon. Then add two more cups, mix.
- Make sure that the tortillas are crushed very fine. I have rough crushed and fine crushed and the latter works the best.
- The last two cups mix in, the "dough" will be a little stiff. But mix well.
- Preheat oven 375°F.
- Take heaping tablespoon and drop on ungreased cookie sheets.
- Note: I used a little over a 1/3 cup of evaporated milk this time and it seemed that the cookie dough was creamier.
- Bake 10 minutes light and soft and chewy.
- Bake 12 minutes brown and crispy and chewy.
- Let set 5 minutes then take off of sheets.
- I like to put the cookies on the upper top racks of the oven. It seems to cook evenly.
- Note:.
- Do not use black sheets. Bottoms get too done and tops not cooked enough.
- Servings based on 3 large cookies per person.
- Cooking time is for two sheets at a time.
- Note: You may add cinnamon instead of Chinese Five Spice. Do not use both.
- Note: You may use 1 1/2 tsp powdered anise with the addition of the rum and add a little more brown sugar.

Tips:
- Use fresh ginger: Fresh ginger has a more intense flavor than ground ginger, so it's best to use it in this recipe if you can find it.
- Grate the ginger finely: Finely grated ginger will distribute its flavor more evenly throughout the crisps.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the crisps tough, so be careful not to overwork it.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help it to hold its shape better in the oven.
- Bake the crisps until they are golden brown: The crisps are done baking when they are golden brown around the edges.
- Let the crisps cool completely before serving: The crisps will be easier to handle and less likely to break if you let them cool completely before serving.
Conclusion:
These Regency Ginger Crisps are a delicious and easy-to-make snack that is perfect for any occasion. They are crispy, flavorful, and have just the right amount of sweetness. Whether you are entertaining guests or just looking for a tasty treat, these ginger crisps are sure to please.
