Swedish Ginger Cookies With Crystallized Ginger image

This is a fantastic cookie recipe that I found in the LCBO Holiday 2003 Food & Drink magazine. I've been making these cookies for a few years now, but I've had a lot of requests for the recipe recently! I hope you enjoy them too!

Time 1h

Yield 3 dozen cookies, 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup unsalted butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup molasses
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon clove
1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 cup coarsely chopped crystallized ginger
1/3 cup granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F (180C).
  • Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl with an electric mixer, cream together butter and sugar for 2 minutes or until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and molasses.
  • Sift together flour, salt, cinnamon, cloves, ginger and baking soda. Stir into batter. Stir in crystallized ginger. The batter will be thick. Roll into 1-inch (2.5cm) balls. Place granulated sugar on a plate. Dip balls into sugar. Place sugar-side up on cookie sheet about 3 inches (8cm) apart, as the cookies tend to spread when baking. Keep dough refrigerated between batches.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes or until cracked on top, slightly firm to the touch and a golden colour. They will soften and crisp up as they cool. Cool on wire racks.

These cookies are the perfect combination of chewy and crispy. I love the way the crystallized ginger adds a little bit of crunch.

I'm not a big fan of ginger, but I really enjoyed these cookies. The crystallized ginger is not too overpowering.

I love that these cookies are made with whole wheat flour. It makes them a little healthier than traditional ginger cookies.

The cookies were good, but I think I would have liked them better if I had used fresh ginger instead of crystallized ginger.

I was a little disappointed with these cookies. They were a bit too dry for my taste.

These cookies were a hit with my family! They're so flavorful and the crystallized ginger adds a nice touch of sweetness. I'll definitely be making these again.
