Gingersnaps

"This is an adaptation on a recipe I found in a great book called "Dining on a Dime". Unfortunately, the original recipe didn't contain any ginger, but I changed that. The dough comes out a little crumbly, but if you press the cookies tightly those crumbly parts add to the texture and give it that classic ginger snap look."

  1. These are delicious. A few vegan guests were over, and these vegan cookies were a huge success. Also, the crumbly remainders make a great ice cream topper. These ginger snaps bend a little when bit into. Some prefer their ginger snaps to really snap, but I like slightly chewy cookies like these. The additional ginger makes a nice difference.
     
  2. Save yourself the time and ingredients....not enough moisture and way too much ginger!

I am a Spanish teacher and my favorite thing to cook is a slow baked Lima bean casserole with herbs de provence. I also love cooking dairy-free with cashew cream.
