The Best Gingersnap Cookies
This cookie delivers everything that you love about a good gingersnap. The spicy heat of fresh ginger with just the right amount of sweetness and spice.
Gingersnap Cookies
Yields about 40 cookies
Oven 300℉, 148℃
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together:
2½ cups of all purpose flour ( 300g plain flour)
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
In a 9 to 10 inch skillet over medium heat, melt
12 tablespoons of unsalted butter, 170g
as the butter melts, swirl the pan until foaming subsides and the butter solids are brown, about 3 to 4 minutes.
Pour the hot melted butter into a large bowl and immediately add:
2 tablespoons of ground ginger
2 tablespoons of freshly grated ginger
4 tablespoons of crystallized ginger, cut into a small dice
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Set the butter mixture aside to cool slightly, about 2 minutes. Then add:
1¼ cup of dark brown sugar, 280g
(an additional video will show you how to make dark brown sugar if needed)
1/4 cup molasses or treacle, 85g
1 large egg plus one egg yolk
Mix molasses and eggs into the butter mixture, then add the flour and mix just enough to combine.
Place dough, covered into the refrigerator for an hour.
(At this point, the dough can be stored in the fridge for a couple of days, or frozen for about one month.)
Set up two cookie sheets with parchment paper. You will also need a plate containing 1/2 cup, 100g of granulated sugar.
Roll dough into 1 inch, or 2 cm balls, and roll each ball in the granulated sugar. 20 balls should fit on each cookie sheet.
Bake for 15 minutes, then rotate pans and bake for an additional 10 to 12 minutes, for a total baking time of 25 to 27 minutes. The cookies will be slightly brown along the edges. Slide the parchment with the cookies onto a cooling rack.
These cookies will be crisp on the edges and chewy inside. They can be stored in an airtight container for up to two weeks, but they won't last that long. ????
Enjoy!!

Chill dough for 30 minutes (or up to 3 days). Place the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar in a small bowl. Once your dough is chilled preheat your oven to 350F/175C.

Bake 7-9 minutes, removing from the oven as soon as the bottoms are golden brown. Move to a wire rack to cool completely. This recipe makes approximately 28 cookies, depending on the size of your scoops. These cookies will keep for up to 5 days, but they can also be frozen, baked or unbaked.
Freezing instructions:
a. You can freeze your baked cookies in a freezer tight bag or container for up to 30 days. Allow to thaw for 1 hour.
b. Freeze your unbaked sugar coated cookie dough balls. Place on a pan or plate and freeze for 30 minutes. Transfer to a freezer tight bag or container. These can be frozen for up to 3 months. Remove from the freezer 30 minutes before baking. Bake as indicated above.

How To Make Ginger Snap Cookie By Andre.H
My Son baked this cookie with my help.
These cookies are not too sweet and not too much gingery! just perfect for kids that do not like too much spice, and good for them that does not have too much sugar too. Hope you like it.
I found out when I made the dough it was too greasy, but the end result was perfect.
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoons ground cloves
1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 Cup brown sugar
3/4 cup vegetable oil
¼ cup maple syrup
1 extra-large egg, at room temperature
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Sift together the flour, ginger, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, and salt. Set aside.
In a bowl beat the egg, and then stir in the maple syrup. Gradually stir the sifted ingredients into the syrup mixture. Shape dough into walnut sized balls and place them 2 inches apart onto an ungreased cookie sheet (parchment paper), and flatten slightly or you can shape them with the cookie cutter.
Bake for 10 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.
