Original Recipe Yield 3 dozen
 

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup butter
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup molasses
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger root
  • 1/2 cup chopped crystallized ginger

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg and molasses.
