MMmmmm! Combining some of my favorites flavors! These are adapted from Pichet Ong's The Sweet Spot. Prep time does not include chilling time as it is not mandatory (they work better for me if I can delay gratification long enough to chill though).

These cookies were easy to make, but they didn't turn out as well as I hoped. I think I over-mixed the dough.

I found that these cookies were a bit dry. I think I'll try adding some extra butter next time.

I'm not a huge fan of ginger, but I still enjoyed these cookies. The raisins helped to balance out the flavor.

These cookies were a hit with my family! They're soft and chewy, with just the right amount of sweetness. The ginger and raisins add a nice touch of flavor.
