Loved these cookies! I was skeptical at first because of the absence of some typical cookie ingredients i.e. egg, leavening. And it seems like the recipe needs more flour, but I followed the recipe and they turned out great. The cookies have a wonderful texture, flaky outside, tender in the middle. I think a bit more grated Ginger is needed, and maybe a tad more sugar, otherwise AMAZING COOKIES!

I think this is going to be a new holiday favorite. I followed the recipe exactly and the dough wasn't overly sticky at all, even before refrigeration, so I'm not sure what everyone else's problem was there. I used red and green sanding sugar along with the crystallized ginger to make them look more Christmas-y. If you like the flavor of ginger, you should definitely give these a try.

I made these with a small star cookie cutter and they were just beautiful, almost too pretty to eat but everyone loved them. I didn't add flour but I did refrigerate them for a few hours before rolling them out.

I agree with Fionat2 - I had to add more flour to make it less sticky. Cook at 300 for 10 mintutes and they come out great... the crystallized ginger does the trick too! Yum yum

I think there must be an error in the recipe - the dough was so wet and sticky I added another cup of flour, and then at least another half a cup once I started to roll it out. Then it became a very workable soft dough. I added extra grated ginger into the mix, and with the crystalized ginger and sugar on top, they were quite tasty.
