These have that *distinctive* sugar cookie flavor on the outside where the cookies browned. I'm so pleased about that. I omitted ginger & mint. I used lemon extract (1/2 t.) instead of zest. I used more white sugar than brown and cookies were too sweet so I'll cut back next time. I used a 1 1/2" cookies scoop (#50/1 T.) and got 19. I baked them on 350 for 11 minutes. They look much better than the photo. Dough balls spread out nicely, were pretty flat with crackle tops. Heavy butter flavor. A-

This is one of my favorite cookies. It always turns out beautifully: it looks pretty, tastes divine, and usually has guests asking for the recipe. I use King Arthur Flour's crystalized Ginger Mini Chips and add a smidge more than called for in the recipe. I love that the taster can recognize all three flavors, yet together they just sing! I try to have some in the freezer for unexpected guests or just to defrost and enjoy with an afternoon coffee or herbal tea for myself.

I truly enjoyed this what I call 'cocktail cookie.' The flavors were very subtle, but you could distinguish them all. I also thought that the teaspoon size would be too small, so I made 1/2 teaspoon size and 1/2 ~Tablespoon size and the recommended TEAspoon size is perfect for such a light, delicate, adult-like cookie. My husband and I don't have much of a sweet-tooth, but one or two of these refreshing cookies took the edge off for the need of something sweet. Thank you!

Hi Sarah - you always ask us to write and tell you what we think so I finally figured out how to post a comment by going to the recipe page (instead of the video page!). I LOVE this cookie recipe (ginger, mint) and my kitchen is full of "waftability" with the fresh smell of mint and I am also making the Tabbouleh salad one from the other day but using Quinoa instead and the pile of parsley that I have smells so good! Thank you for all your videos - I have now made about 35 of your recipes!

Can' wait to try this recipe and am really enjoying receiving Sarah's videos each day. BTW, the comments link on the page does not work, in case you were wondering why you aren't getting comments.

DO NOT bake these cookies for the full 14 minutes recommended in the recipe! I even made my cookies larger than the tsp size in the recipe and they burned at 14 minutes. I would start checking the cookies at 10 minutes. The recipe does not make very much dough. I made TB-size balls and it yielded 26 cookies. The did taste good, although not very lemony.
