Well, they were supposed to be Three-way, but mine are only Two-way. Let me explain. These ‘snappy’ little cookies called for ground, fresh, and crystallized ginger, but I only had the ground and fresh. I was hesitant about making them sans one of the ingredients, but Kayte, Phyl and Nancy all said to go for it (we were Twitter/baking at the time) so I did. And they were tasty.
These were really peppy little cookies. I would like to make them again. With the crystallized ginger.
By the way, if you have been following those of us doing the Modern Baker Challenge the section after Puff Pastry was supposed to be cakes, but since it was the holiday season, and holidays = cookies, we skipped cakes. Don’t worry, we will go back to them the first of June. Until then, enjoy the 25 different cookies that will show up on the Modern Baker Challenge Website.
Phyl is the official host for these cookies. So visit his blog. His are beautiful.
More cookies to come.

Yum, I really loved these. Looking at your picture just makes me want to make them again right now…..think anyone would notice if I left work early to bake cookies?! lol

What a great photo of them all stacked up there like that. I just piled them on a plate. Mine were really dark in color but we loved that, wonder why mine were so dark…oh, well, they tasted great and were gone in no time so I had to make more for them. Crisp and chewy all at the same time. Maybe I can get mine posted today so you can see them…lol. Hope floats.

Lovely! I made this twice already, and will probably bake them again soon. These were so good! I’m anxious to hear what you think if you make them with the crystallized ginger next time.

Mmm, I love ginger cookies. You should definitely try them with the crystallized ginger–my favorite ginger cookies have it in there, and it’s so tasty. =)
