Soft Apple Ginger Spice Cookies image

In addition to being some of the best spice cookies you'll ever eat, these may also be the easiest since you don't need an electric mixer to prepare the dough. You can also make them without diced apples, or substitute dried cranberries. Per cookie: Calories: 176, Protein: 2g, Total fat: 6g, Saturated fat:

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but these cookies came out flat and hard. I'll have to try again.

These cookies didn't turn out well for me. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

I'm not a big fan of ginger, but I really liked these cookies. The apple and spice flavors were strong enough to balance out the ginger.
