My friend Addie is an amazing cook. What's really amazing about Addie is that she is willing to share her amazing recipes so we can all be amazing cooks like her!! I love this recipe. As the last batch cooks in the oven, I send you out the ingrediants so you too can be like Addie; an amazing cook!
Don't bother making these if you don't like ginger - all three types are within; dry, fresh grated and minced crystalized! Wow! I take a microplaner to the fresh ginger and just chop the crystalized up into small little pieces. The combination of butter and shortening give these cookies just the right texture too.
