Amazing cookies that get rave reviews each time I make them. They are always made for an event because if I made them to keep at home we'd eat them all in one day. So yummy, highly recommended! FYI: if you have a hard time locating candied ginger, find an Asian market. Only place I've ever been able to find it, and it's sometimes labeled as caramelized ginger.

ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!!! Luv, luv, luv the crystallized ginger in them. Watched each persons' face register surprise as they took their first bite. Then say "OMG these are delicious". Didn't change a thing and don't know that I would (except doubling the batch). They have a nice soft texture. Cakey-like not crunchy. Even my Mother-in-law, who is an awesome cook/baker, asked for the recipe.

These are amazing -- and easy -- cookies. The frosting is to die for! I made a few changes to the cookies: Omitted the crystalized ginger (sounds good but I didn't have any on hand). Increased ground ginger to 1 1/2 teaspoons. Added 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon of each of nutmeg, allspice and ground cloves. I also added 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger to the frosting.
