    These are the best gingersnaps I've ever had! I used the conversions that other posters suggested, and they turned out great. I used Alton's recipe to make my own candied ginger after I discovered how expensive pre-made was....but I forgot to save some fresh ginger for the cookies. Using a little extra of the candied ginger in its place seemed to work just fine.

    This recipe was easy to convert, make and was delicious. I prepared them without the candied & fresh ginger. I encountered no problems or sticking. They were perfect and everyone enjoyed them. Thank you and Happy Holidays Alton!

    These are awesome if you are looking for a true to taste flavour. The ingredients were a bit of a pain to convert. But they baked up just like they should, 2nd tray I left for the extra minute or 2 and they are nice and crunchy, perfect for a dunk in a cup of tea. Next batch I would add a hint more of the spices.

    Horrible. Every year I make the entire 12 days of cookies. These had way to much Ginger which had quite a kick and left an after taste. Plus the ingredients are insanely expensive $11 just for a bottle of cardamom.

    This is a terrible recipe. I have a master's degree in Food Science and even I had trouble converting this recipe to standard kitchen measures. When I did finally try to bake the cookies, they stuck to parchment paper and they ended up in the garbage. Please remove this recipe from the site.

    Amazing. There really aren't words to describe how good these are. Finally found OUR Ginger Snap recipe. Everything is great about this. Unique, incredibly tasty, great texture, easy......and exciting to the last bite.

    I agree that there is not enough flour. The flavor was delicious but they came out like round shingles and a funky dark brown color. Did I mention I don't usually bake? My attempt tasted better than it looked. Go Figure.

    This was a delicious cookie. I baked mine for 12 minutes, and they were crispy on the outside and chewy in the center. The gingery flavor really came through!
