CANDIED LEMON GINGER COOKIES
O.K, so I haven't made this recipe yet, but because I don't want to forget about it I placed it here for safe keeping. I love ginger cookies and haven't found a good enough recipe to compare to the ginger cookies found at Trader Joe's. But I believe after reading through the list of ingredients and method that this one might hit the mark. This one is on my Christmas cookie list. Will keep you updated when I finally get to make them.
