These are my favourite ginger cookies. Be sure to chop glazed ginger finely though or it can overwhelm

Steps

1

In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, the three gingers.
2

Add dry ingredients to butter mixture slowly, making sure to mix well. Cover and place in refrigerator for at least two hours. Can be left overnight.
3

In a processor with paddle attachment mix together butter and sugar until creamy. Add eggs and molasses. Mix very well. You will have to scrape away from sides now and again.
4

Roll teaspoon full into balls. Dip in extra sugar to add shine and space well on greased tray (to cut down on cleaning I use baking paper on my tray) bake at 180°F C for approximately 10 minutes.
5

Allow to cool slightly before removing with egg lifter as I cookie is still very soft. Allow to cool on counter or rack completely before storing in airtight container or cookie jar
