You can omit the chopped crystallized ginger and increase the ground ginger to 1 1/2 teaspoons, if desired. Ingredients:
2/3 cup packed dark brown sugar |
1/3 cup stick margarine or butter, softened |
1/4 cup molasses |
1 large egg white |
1 tablespoon chopped crystallized ginger |
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour |
3/4 cup toasted wheat germ |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
1 teaspoon ground ginger |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
cooking spray |
2 tablespoons granulated sugar |
Directions:
1. Beat brown sugar and margarine at medium speed of a mixer until light and fluffy. Add molasses and egg white; beat well. Stir in crystallized ginger.
2. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour, wheat germ, baking soda, ground ginger, and cinnamon. Stir into molasses mixture. Cover; freeze 20 minutes.
3. Preheat oven to 350°.
4. Lightly coat hands with cooking spray. Shape the dough into 30 balls, about 1 tablespoon each. Roll the balls in the granulated sugar. Place the balls 2 inches apart on baking sheets coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes. Cool cookies on pans for 3 minutes. Remove from pans, and cool the cookies completely on wire racks.
