• The original recipe did not call for the sugar and cinnamon in the dough, just to roll into before baking.
• I think the extra sugar made them crispy on the outside but soft inside and so we loved it but you could reduce.
• If you are not a huge spice fan like myself you could also omit the cinnamon in the dough.
• Original recipe also called for 1/4 Cup chopped crystallized ginger, but I used the ground because it was all I had on hand, this is one thing I would consider trying next time.
