After-School Gingersnaps
SUBMITTED BY:
Alice Thomas
"These cookies were always my favorite after-school treat. I could hardly wait to get home for my snack of gingersnaps and a tall glass of milk. Whenever I think of that special snack, I recall the warmth of home filled with the spicy aroma of ginger!"

Thanks for this submission. Actually, when I rolled it out and tried to take the cut-outs off the counter and on to the pan, they sort of smushed together and did not retain their form. I ended up having to roll them in a ball, then smash them into a circle with my hand in the pan. They actually turned out nicely. My kids loved them. I would still love to find a recipe that will give me a sharp, pungent ginger taste and crispy, like from the store. My kids, however, prefered these. Thanks again..
