Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium mixing bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, ginger, cardamom, clove and salt. Place the brown sugar and butter into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on low speed until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the molasses, egg and fresh ginger and beat on medium for 1 minute. Add the crystallized ginger and using a rubber spatula, stir to combine. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and stir until well combined. With a 2-teaspoon sized scoop, drop the dough onto a parchment lined half sheet pan approximately 2-inches apart. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 12 minutes for slightly chewy cookies or 15 minutes for more crisp cookies. Rotate the pan halfway through cooking. Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to stay on the sheet pan for 30 seconds before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with all of the dough. Store in an airtight container for up 10 days. If desired, you may scoop and freeze the cookie dough on a sheet pan and once frozen, place in a resealable bag to store. Bake directly from the freezer as above.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar until combined. Add the egg and mix until smooth. Stir in the molasses.
- Whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom and cloves in a medium bowl. Slowly add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix until the dough comes together. It will be a stiff dough.
- Using a 1-ounce portion scoop, portion the dough into walnut-size balls and roll in the remaining sugar. Place 1 1/2 inches apart on two baking sheets. (You should be able to bake 12 cookies per sheet.)
- Bake until the cookies spread and the sugary top cracks, 11 to 13 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on wire racks.
SHARI'S EXTRA-SPICY GINGERSNAPS
My family loves spicy foods. I created this recipe so that we could even enjoy some spicy heat in a cookie. If you too enjoy the heat, use the full amount of cayenne pepper.-Shari Upchurch, Dearing, Georgia

INCREDIBLY CRISP GINGERSNAPS
In 1998, I was invited by Pat Adrian, director of the Good Cook division of the Book of the Month Club, to judge the group's annual office baking contest. There were luscious cakes, pies and cookies of all types, but these gingersnaps were the hands-down winners. Julie Ellis-Clayton, the winner of the contest, was kind enough to share her recipe with me.

Steps:
- Set racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees. Combine the flour, baking soda, salt, and spices in a bowl; stir well to mix. In the bowl of a standing electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together on medium speed the butter and sugar for about 5 minutes until very light, fluffy and whitened. Add the egg and continue beating until smooth. Lower speed and beat in half the dry ingredients, then the molasses. Stop the mixer and scrape down bowl and beater. Beat in the remaining dry ingredients. Remove bowl from mixer and use a large rubber spatula to finish mixing the dough. Use a small ice cream scoop to scoop out 1-inch diameter pieces of dough. Roll into balls between the palms of your the hands, then roll in the sugar. Place the balls of dough on the prepared pans leaving about 3 inches all around each, to allow for spreading. Bake the cookies for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until they have spread, the surface has crackled, and they are firm to the touch. Slide the papers from the pans to racks. Store the cooled cookies between sheets of parchment or waxed paper in a tin or platic container witha tight-fitting cover.

EXTRA SPICY GINGERSNAPS
Warning: These cookies are ADDICTIVE! Try them once and you'll be hooked. These are the most requested (and eaten) cookies that I make. Even my husband who doesn't eat sweets can't leave these cookies alone.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine the flour, baking soda and spices in a bowl and set aside.
- 2. Cream the shortening with a mixer until smooth and fluffy. Add the sugars and mix, then add the molasses and mix well. Add the egg whites, mixing to combine. Add the dry ingredients in three batches, mixing well after each addition.
- 3. Place some granulated sugar on wax paper or plate. Roll dough into 3/4-inch balls and roll in sugar until lightly coated. Transfer to parchment-lined cookie sheets leaving 3-inches of space between cookies. Bake until browned, approximately 10-13 minutes. Do NOT overbake. Let cool on wire racks and store in airtight container.
- 4. NOTE: I found this recipe years ago on a website and have modified it slightly. I do not use the parchment-lined baking sheets as I have found that my stone baking sheet that I got from Pampered Chef works great. Also, I tend to make my cookies a little larger than 3/4-inch (I use a cookie scoop)and usually bake them in my gas oven for 13 minutes.
CHEF JOHN'S GINGERSNAP COOKIES
The amazing spicy-sweet flavor and irresistible texture of these cookies will please even a non-cookie eater like me. You can adjust the spices to suit your tastes but remember, they're called 'snaps' for reasons other than texture!
