(Maybe it is because I loooooove the burn, so I added a ton more ginger.) Also, check out the link to the original recipe in the post...her key is taking them out of the oven at 8 minutes. </p> <p>I've made super snappy gingersnaps, peanut butter and bacon cookies, and regular chocolate chip cookies (still haven't found that perfect cookie :( ). </p> <p>I think I'm going to try the rolo cookies (@HLK208:)and the cranberry cake!
