CRISPY GINGER BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 2 baking sheets.
• Beat butter, 1/2 cup white sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until creamy, 1 to 2 minutes. Beat in egg, ground ginger, and salt. Gradually add flour until cookie dough comes together, 1 to 2 minutes. Fold in chopped crystallized ginger.
• Place 2 tablespoons white sugar in a shallow dish. Shape dough into balls, and roll one side in sugar. Press onto prepared baking sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes.

TRADITIONAL GINGER BISCUIT RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a large bowl, beat together butter, castor sugar, and brown sugar until light and creamy.
• Using a whisk, slowly add beaten egg, a little at a time.
• Sift together flour, baking powder , salt, nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon, ginger, and mixed spice (if using) into another bowl.
• Carefully stir flour mixture into butter, sugar, and egg mixture.
• Roll out half the dough between 2 sheets of greaseproof paper to 1/8- to 1/4-inch thick. Slide rolled dough, paper and all, onto a large baking sheet. Repeat with the second half of the dough; slide it, paper and all, onto first sheet of dough. Place baking sheet in refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
• When you are ready to cook the biscuits, heat oven to 350 F and grease a baking sheet with butter.
• Cut dough with a cookie or gingerbread man cutter to the size you wish. We used a 3-inch round cutter, and it yielded about 4 dozen cookies.
• Gather scraps, reroll between sheets of paper and refrigerate again. Continue cutting and rerolling until all of the dough is used.
• In batches, place biscuits on baking sheets. Any rolled out dough or biscuits waiting to go into the oven should be kept cold in the fridge, or they will get too soft.
• Bake each batch for 10 minutes. Once cooked, remove from oven. As biscuits will be soft at this point, carefully remove from baking sheet and leave to cool on a wire cooling tray. Once cool, the biscuits will harden and have the perfect snap.

CHEWY GINGER COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Sift the flour, ground ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and allspice together into a mixing bowl; stir.
• Beat sugar and butter with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth and creamy. Beat egg and molasses into creamed butter mixture. Gradually stir flour mixture into butter mixture until just coming together into a batter. Gently fold crystallized ginger through the batter.
• Roll rounded teaspoon-sized amounts of dough into small balls between your hands and place onto ungreased baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
• Bake in preheated oven until the tops are rounded and slightly cracked, about 10 minutes. Cool cookies on baking sheets for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
