I can't wait to try these gingersnaps with different types of molasses. I think they would be delicious with blackstrap molasses or sorghum molasses.

These gingersnaps are delicious, but they're a bit too crumbly. I think I'll try chilling the dough before baking next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my gingersnaps came out flat. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These gingersnaps are a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding a little bit more molasses next time.
