Awesome cookies!!! If I could I would give it 10 stars. The only adjustment I did was add cinnamon to the white sugar for coating the cookies and used butter instead of margarine. Thank you for sharing the recipe!!!

I followed the recipe as written, besides adding an extra tablespoon or so of flour for high altitude. They were chewy, but not too soft, and delicious! You can't just have one.

Great recipe! Absolutely fantastic. I used half butter half margarine and added one more tablespoon of ginger. Cooked for 9 mins max they make the PERFECT gingersnap.

I followed these directions exactly. I don't know if I'll be able to go back to eating the ones from the store! Fantastic cookie! Pay close attention to the 1 inch sized balls and 2 inches apart, part of the directions.

I am not a huge gingersnap fan, but I am running my own baking test kitchen this wk and I wanted to find some out-of-the ordinary cookies to add to my repertoire. These were amazing! I thought the dough smelled awful and was sure they would be gross, but it tastes so nice and spicy, but not too much. I used butter instead of margarine. I was surprised at how thin they came out, but they were crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. They do spread out, so you may want to roll smaller balls to see how you like their size. Other reviewers are right, be sure to leave them on the pan for five mins once you take them out of the oven. The 8 minutes were perfect. This is a nice cookie to bring to a more sophisticated person, someone who likes drinking tea! I like this as much as I like my snickerdoodles, and that's saying a lot.

I used butter instead of margerine, that was the only change I made. Using butter made no difference in the outcome of the cookie only just a butter flavor. Excellent. Exactly like Grandma's. Not only are they a beautiful cookie, they are soft and spicy as well.
