How To Make ginger dream cookies

Step 1Preheat oven 350 degrees. In a medium bowl stir together with a whisk the flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves and salt. Set aside.

Step 2I sometimes make giant cookies using an ice cream scoop, spray the inside. If not I use a heaped table spoon. Place remaining sugar in a shallow plate. Drop dough by scoopfuls or spoonfuls onto sugar, Roll, coat well. then place on cookie sheet. If I am making with ice cream scoop, I do six per pan, otherwise I do twelve. Bake 11-13 min, do not over bake. You want these chewy and soft!

Step 3I use my KitchenAid mixer to make these with little mess and a lot of saved time!
