Our Ginger Cookies have a sugar coated crackly surface, and when you bite into one you will find the texture soft and chewy with a flavor that is buttery and spicy. The combination of honey with ground cinnamon and ground ginger makes eating one just about impossible.

Ginger Cookies
Prep time :
45 minutes
Bake/Cook time :
12 minutes
Yield :
4 - 5 dozen

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 stick unsalted butter, soft
  • 4 pouches (1 cup) Imperial Sugar Redi-Measure Light Brown Sugar
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour (spoon and sweep method*)
  • 1 tablespoon + 2 teaspoons ginger
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
  • 1 teaspoon all-spice
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

*Using spoon fill measuring cup with flour until required amount is obtained. (Scooping measuring cup directly into flour bag will firmly pack flour resulting in too much flour required for recipe.)

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  2. Mix butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add honey, egg and salt and mix until creamy.
  3. Sift together all remaining dry ingredients and add to creamed mixture in one step. Mix until just combined.
  4. For easy handling, you can refrigerate dough for 30 minutes or longer.
  5. Using a small ice cream scoop measure enough dough to form balls 3/4 inch in diameter. Roll into granulated sugar and place on cookie sheets preferably lined with parchment paper or lightly buttered. Press balls to make surface slightly flat.
  6. Place in oven and bake for about 9 to 11 minutes or until cookies are light brown and start to “collapse”.

Note: For a soft cookie, remove from oven after about 8 minutes of baking.
