The Perfect Ginger Snap image

Once you try these you will share this recipe with family and friends. These are the most delicious ginger snaps and are very simple to make. They remind me of the ginger snaps I used to buy when I was a child. They are a little crunchy and a little chewy at the same time, spicy but not too spicy for children.
