This easy recipe has always been a hit wherever we have taken these.  The spices are so strong which is why in my opinion makes them great! Over the last few months we have had the great pleasure of bringing these Ginger Snaps to a friend. Our friend has a rare form of cancer and has been amazingly strong while going through very aggressive treatments.  Apparently going through all these treatments has left our friend not being able to taste anything.  It took one bite for our friend to realize she COULD taste it and her family was NOT getting any! (She did share with her family on subsequent cookie delivery days.)

These cookies are easy to make. The ingredients are common and probably in your pantry already. I love recipes with common ingredients. The Little Chefs took turns measuring over and over again. If you have a little chef who needs to practice measuring this recipe is perfect! Rolling the cookies in sugar is also another fun part of the recipe. Beware your circles will not be circles but some organic form when they are placed on the cookie sheet to cook. Don’t worry, they will still taste wonderful!

These cookies also freeze well. I love doubling the recipe and freezing a batch for later when an unexpected visitor arrives.
