COOKIE JAR GINGERSNAPS
My grandma kept two cookie jars in her pantry. One of the jars, which I now have, always had these crisp and chewy gingersnaps in it. They're still my favorite cookie recipe. My daughter, Becky, used this recipe for a 4-H fair and won a blue ribbon. -Deb Handy, Pomona, Kansas

An old family favorite out of my grandmother's recipe book. I haven't made this recipe yet myself, but a reviewer suggests to add more spice :) they used 1.5 times the amount stated. Enjoy!
