Best Gingersnaps Ever image

Found this years ago on Cooking Light and have been making every since. DH says they are the best Gingersnaps he's ever had. **Please do not leave out the black pepper it really does add to these cookies. ***Preparation time does not include the hour of chill time that is needed before baking. ****Please do not make changes...

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/2 c flour
1 Tbsp ground ginger
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/8 tsp salt
1/2 c butter, softened
3/4 c granulated sugar
1/2 c dark brown sugar, packed
1/4 c molasses
1 large egg
1 large egg white
cooking spray

Steps:

  • 1. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife. Combine 2 cups flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, pepper, and salt. Beat margarine, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and brown sugar at medium speed of a mixer until light and fluffy. Add molasses, and beat 2 minutes. Add egg and egg white, and beat mixture until fluffy. Stir in the flour mixture until well-blended. Shape the dough into a ball with floured hands; add enough of remaining flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, to prevent dough from sticking. Wrap in plastic wrap; chill 1 hour.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 375°.
  • 3. Shape dough into 30 balls with floured hands. Roll balls in 1/4 cup granulated sugar; place 2 inches apart on baking sheets coated with cooking spray. Bake at 375° for 12 minutes. Immediately remove cookies from pans to a wire rack; cool completely.

I'm allergic to molasses. Is there a substitute I can use?

I tried making these gingersnaps, but they turned out too hard. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These gingersnaps are a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loves them.

I'm not usually a fan of gingersnaps, but these are really good. They're not too spicy, and they have a nice chewy texture.

These gingersnaps are amazing! They're perfectly crispy and chewy, with just the right amount of spice. I love the molasses flavor, too.
