Check out the crinkle on the top of these gingersnap cookies. I don't usually take the time to roll my cookies into balls but for this gingersnap cookie recipe, it's worth it.
You will roll the dough into balls and then roll around in granulated sugar. Let me tell ya, these are to die for!
Tips for making these amazing Gingersnap Cookies:
- You can make the dough ahead of time. Just be sure the dough is room temp before baking
- Roll you gingersnap cookie dough into balls and then roll in granulated sugar. This gives them a little sparkle and a sugar crisp on the outside of the cookie.
- You can use white chocolate chips or white chocolate wafers for this recipe. If you are using chocolate chips, melt 2 Tablespoons of coconut oil in with the white chocolate chips. This will keep the white chocolate soft.
