Crystalized Ginger Cookies are a cross between a sugar cookie and a ginger snap. This cookie is actually inspired by a very good friend of mine who loves Ginger. I’ll only refer to her as CN. CN loves ginger, so much so, she has me adding ginger to everything. What is surprising about these cookies, is that this recipe uses shortening instead of butter. Despite this, the taste of these cookies are amazing. If ginger cookies are not your thing, try out our sugar cookies
I usually buy crystallized ginger from discount stores like Marshall’s. You can also order it online from amazon.
