This recipe is honestly fool-proof. I've made them twice now. The first time, I accidently left out a whole cup of flour and didn't realize it until I had baked too many to try to fix it. They came out like crinkly molasses cookies, and tasted great. The second time, I got the flour right and they stayed in puffed little balls, more like a ginger snap. So you can pick which you want! Also, the baking time can be adjusted very liberally. I've baked them for as little as 7 minutes to get a crisp outside and chewy center, and up to 15 or 16 to get a true ginger snap. The choice is yours!!

I thought this was a pretty good recipe. I used 1/3 cup of molasses to add more kick. I also rolled in powder sugar. I had to say that the recipe saying white sugar was a bit confusing - is that granular sugar or powdered. I assumed granular. also in the recipe the 1/4 cup of sugar is before the salt and perhaps i'm being too literal but that too seemed confusing. However I did not add the 1/4 cup and assumed it was what the dough rolls in. I acutally used powdered and it worked well. So all in all it was a good recipe, but i think the recipe could be a tad more clear! But it tasted really good! Thanks!

A family favorite! A great addition to a Christmas platter. We prefer these to ginger snaps.

Very good! The dough is super easy to work with. I prefer mine with more spice, so I add 1/2 tsp. of black pepper. Also, I thought they were a little too sweet and I found 3/4 cup of sugar works better for me. Watch the baking time carefully. I like mine a little softer, so I stop baking them just after they crinkle (10-12 minutes.)I took someone else's suggestion and I rolled them in turbinado sugar. They look very pretty. These are great for someone who can't have butter.

this cookie made up beautifully. It was an even brown and the consistancy was excellent.

This is a crunchy but not hard cookie. Even undercooking it by 5 or 6 minutes didn't yield a soft or chewy cookie. It has a good flavor. The dough doesn't have to be refrigerated before forming balls, nor do you have to soften butter for it which makes it a great last-minute recipe.

This cookie has excellent flavor and was very easy to make. I rolled the balls of dough in raw sugar instead of white sugar and they looked really pretty.
