Variations:


Use 2t cinnamon instead of the ginger for a cinnamon cookie (my favourite!)
Use 2t vanilla instead of the ginger for a plain cookie
Omit the ginger and use one of the above variations and add half a block of chopped chocolate to the mix for a choc chip cookie (we use Loving Earth Creamy Mylk Chocolate)
