Sugar 'n Spice Cookies image

I found this in a box of old family recipes - it was a gift from a Ms. Kurzawa to my grandmother, who apparently loved these cookies. When I made them, they even won over our resident ginger snap hater - he ate almost the whole batch!

I had a hard time getting the cookies to spread out. They were more like little balls.

These cookies were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good.

I'm not a big fan of sugar cookies, but these were really good. The spices gave them a nice flavor.

I've made these cookies several times now and they're always a crowd-pleaser. They're soft and chewy with just the right amount of sweetness.
