These are the recipes I use every day . . . not just my own, but also my favorites from family, friends, and other sources. It is a continual work in progress as I fine-tune recipes, add photos, and try new things. Please leave your comments so that I can learn from you too!

Tender Gingersnaps

1 c. packed brown sugar
3/4 c. butter, melted

2-1/4 c. flour
1-1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1 tsp. baking soda

Preheat oven to 350 F.

In a large bowl, beat brown sugar and melted butter until blended.  Beat in egg and molasses.

Combine flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon and cloves; gradually add to sugar mixture and mix well (dough will be stiff).
