Good but lacking flavor. Next batch: add 1t nutmeg, 1t vanilla extract and 1C cransins. Definitely reduce baking soda!

The best ginger snap I have ever had! It is worth it to use all 3 types of ginger.

Yummo! Love this recipe, cut the baking powder by 1 teaspoon and added 1/2 tsp of ceyene pepper. Scooped using 1TBLS scoop made 92 cookies. Zesty, hot, sweet and spicy, many thanks.

Yummy! Crisp edges with a soft, chewy middle, and so flavorful! I made them exactly as written and they're delicious! My kids love them too. (I had to hide them till after supper). I never knew there were different types of molasses. I used the "backstrap" type, which is supposed to have a stronger flavor.

Tastes delicious but I think it calls for too much baking soda. Next time I will reduce to 2 or 2 1/2 T and see if that improves the taste and texture.

I was looking for a very 'gingery' snap and this is a good one. Some of the suggestions I've read could add variety but this recipe is very good on its own. I can see how cayenne or regular ground black pepper would add to the 'heat'. As for the baking time, it's just a matter of taste whether a person wants a bit chewy or a 'snap'. You can trust this recipe!

I tried it tonight and am thoroughly enjoying them. I agree complating with Limobarbie to add cayenne pepper and Varre n Robynns Mom to add fresh minced ginger. I will try it again very soon!

I haven't made these yet. I like the idea of cayanne pepper! Has anyone had the gingersnap cookies from "Clarke's Bakery" in London? The best in the world! Searching for the recipe. I know they use baking powder instead of soda! They are a bit hot and spicy.
