How to Make Chewy Triple Ginger Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons ground ginger, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground cloves, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional). Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup packed light brown sugar, ½ cup shortening, and ½ cup unsalted butter until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs and ⅓ cup molasses until well combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Gently fold in 1 cup chopped crystallized ginger and 2 tablespoons finely grated fresh ginger.
  7. Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to 24 hours).
  8. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  9. Roll the chilled dough into 1-inch balls. Roll each ball in white sugar or powdered sugar (optional).
  10. Place the balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie. Gently flatten slightly with a fork (optional).
  11. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Check for doneness at 8 minutes.
  12. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
