Hey Lady! It's been a while, but I'm happy to see that you're back in the recipe business!
Ginger cookies are some of my favorites, and although we make them around the holidays, they're also one of the cookies I tend to go back to year-round. Am thinking these would be perfect with some of the homemade ice cream we made last weekend!
