•

2.25 cups all-purpose flour
•

2 teaspoons ground ginger
•

2 teaspoons baking soda
•

0.5 teaspoon salt
•

1 cup packed brown sugar

•

0.75 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 large egg

0.5 cup chopped crystallized ginger

1.5 tablespoons minced fresh ginger root

Instructions

Whisk flour, ginger, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl.
Beat brown sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Mix in egg and molasses. Gradually stir in flour mixture with a wooden spoon. Stir in crystallized and fresh ginger. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Roll chilled dough into 1-inch balls and place about 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to wire racks to cool.
