Yield Makes about 60

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup solid vegetable shortening (preferably non-hydrogenated)
1/4 cup mild-flavored (light) molasses
1 large egg
2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh ginger
1/4 cup chopped crystallized ginger
Raw sugar (for rolling)
Ingredient info: Look for raw sugar (also called turbinado or demerara sugar) at most supermarkets and at natural foods stores.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment. Whisk first 5 ingredients and 1/2 teaspoon salt in medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat sugar and shortening in large bowl until fluffy. Beat in molasses, egg, and fresh ginger. Stir in crystallized ginger, then dry ingredients.
  • Fill small shallow bowl with raw sugar. Using moist hands, shape 1 teaspoonful dough into ball; roll in raw sugar. Place on prepared sheet. Repeat with remaining dough, spacing cookies 2 inches apart.
  • Bake cookies until golden and dry-looking, about 15 minutes. Cool on sheets.

I followed the recipe exactly and my cookies turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still pretty good.

I'm not usually a fan of ginger cookies, but these were surprisingly good. The texture was soft and chewy, and the ginger flavor was subtle but still noticeable.

Easy to make and delicious! I used fresh ginger and it gave the cookies a great zing.

These cookies were a hit! They had the perfect balance of sweetness and spice, and the ginger flavor really shone through. I'll definitely be making these again.
