I like crispy gingersnaps, but I tried to make ones with moist insides. By adding 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, you can make gingersnaps with a crispy outside and moist center.Add more spices to suit your taste. Recipe by American food

Found this recipe in an all things, Let’s Celebrate the Holiday, Season magazine, in my local paper. If I do this tasty recipe again, I will make with smaller cookie balls. I only made half the recipe size but if I was doing a cookie exchange I would do the original recipe.
