This cookie proved a definite learning experience about people. Most everyone has an opinion about ginger (the spice or the root.) Mostly good.
I never really thought much about ginger aside from Ginger Ale, Ginger Beer, pickled ginger that comes with sushi, and I guess every Asian recipe known to man.
I always liked gingersnaps. In the box from the grocery store. I mean, there are some pretty good packaged cookies. Who would say no to an Oreo???
So this is a pretty straight forward gingersnap. Crispy, crunchy and gingery.
It wasn’t quite the spicyness of the boxed variety. I would definitely amp up the ginger next time.
And, I did have one interesting comment…”It isn’t snappy enough.”
As Roseanne Roseannadanna would say: “Well Jane, it just goes to show you, it’s always something. If it’s not one thing, it’s another.”
