    This was easy to make & I thought yummy. I made them for my kids' International Lunch hosted by the moms at their school. Most thought they were bland & doughey tasting. Was I supposed to use fresh ground ginger or ground dried ginger? I made small rounds & sprinkled them w/powdered sugar. I thought they were fab.
