Tips:

  • Use fresh ginger for a more intense flavor. Peel and grate the ginger yourself to ensure the best quality and flavor.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at a moderate temperature (350°F/175°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to brown. Baking the cookies for too long will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool on a wire rack before storing them in an airtight container. This will help prevent the cookies from becoming soggy.

So next time you're in the mood for a delicious and easy-to-make cookie, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
