Swedish Ginger Cookies With Crystallized Ginger image

This is a fantastic cookie recipe that I found in the LCBO Holiday 2003 Food & Drink magazine. I've been making these cookies for a few years now, but I've had a lot of requests for the recipe recently! I hope you enjoy them too!

Time 1h

Yield 3 dozen cookies, 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup unsalted butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup molasses
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon clove
1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 cup coarsely chopped crystallized ginger
1/3 cup granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F (180C).
  • Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl with an electric mixer, cream together butter and sugar for 2 minutes or until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and molasses.
  • Sift together flour, salt, cinnamon, cloves, ginger and baking soda. Stir into batter. Stir in crystallized ginger. The batter will be thick. Roll into 1-inch (2.5cm) balls. Place granulated sugar on a plate. Dip balls into sugar. Place sugar-side up on cookie sheet about 3 inches (8cm) apart, as the cookies tend to spread when baking. Keep dough refrigerated between batches.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes or until cracked on top, slightly firm to the touch and a golden colour. They will soften and crisp up as they cool. Cool on wire racks.

Not a fan of these cookies. They were too dry and crumbly for my taste.

The cookies turned out flat and didn't have much flavor. I'm not sure what went wrong.

Easy to make and delicious! The cookies turned out crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. The ginger flavor was prominent but not overpowering.
