My mom came across this &nbsp;ginger cookie recipe while watching the Barefoot Contessa on TV. She made up a batch last night, and they are perfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Real ginger flavor, plenty of spice, soft, hearty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a treat to whip up for a friend who is pregnant or going through chemotherapy, this recipe is where it&#8217;s at. Not too sweet, a powerful punch of ginger, and hearty enough to provide a sense of settling without sitting heavy after you eat one&#8230; or four.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All that said, these are wonderful ginger cookies for everyday as well. They&#8217;ve become a staple in our home, and in our lunchboxes, too.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>[amd-zlrecipe-recipe:3]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks, Mom, these cookies made my day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"244\" data-attachment-id=\"9241\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/coffeejitters.net\/blog\/2020\/12\/20\/a-fresh-start-for-the-new-year\/best-wishes-judy\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/coffeejitters.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/best-wishes-judy.png?fit=2050%2C780\" data-orig-size=\"2050,780\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"best-wishes-judy\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/coffeejitters.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/best-wishes-judy.png?fit=640%2C244\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/coffeejitters.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/best-wishes-judy.png?resize=640%2C244\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9241\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/coffeejitters.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/best-wishes-judy.png?resize=640%2C244 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/coffeejitters.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/best-wishes-judy.png?resize=300%2C114 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/coffeejitters.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/best-wishes-judy.png?resize=768%2C292 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/coffeejitters.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/best-wishes-judy.png?resize=1536%2C584 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/coffeejitters.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/best-wishes-judy.png?resize=2048%2C779 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1500\" data-attachment-id=\"10832\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/coffeejitters.net\/blog\/2010\/08\/02\/best-ginger-cookie-ever\/ginger-cookie-1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/coffeejitters.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/ginger-cookie-1.png?fit=1000%2C1500\" data-orig-size=\"1000,1500\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"ginger cookie (1)\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/coffeejitters.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/ginger-cookie-1.png?fit=1000%2C1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/coffeejitters.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/ginger-cookie-1.png?resize=1000%2C1500\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10832\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/coffeejitters.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/ginger-cookie-1.png?w=1000 1000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/coffeejitters.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/ginger-cookie-1.png?resize=200%2C300 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/coffeejitters.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/ginger-cookie-1.png?resize=768%2C1152 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ina Garten&#8217;s recipe for Ginger Cookies.
