This has been my "go to" gingersnap recipe since I discovered it in TOH years ago. I always add some extra ginger and I never bother to dip them. I also never get anywhere near 14 dozen. We love these! They make great ice cream sandwiches too!

    I had never made gingersnaps before but the picture looked so delicious, I was ready to try. WOW! They were so awesome, I couldn't stop tasting them. Then, when I dipped them in white chocolate, they were over the top. I didn't get 14 dozen but who cares. They were awesome and everyone loved them. What a great recipe!
