  1-2 hrs

ingredients

1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into 8 pieces
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh ginger root
1 tablespoon powdered ginger
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup flour, PLUS"PLUS" means this ingredient in addition to the one on the next line, often with divided uses
2 tablespoons flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 pinch fine sea salt
1/4 cup finely diced crystallized ginger

directions

Cream the butter and sugar with an electric mixer until smooth, about 3 minutes. Add the minced and powdered gingers, the vanilla, flour, baking soda and salt. Mix just until the dough comes together.

Turn out on a lightly floured board, gather into a ball and flatten slightly.

Lightly flour a large piece of parchment paper. Place the dough in the center and roll out with a floured rolling pin to 1/8-inch thickness. Cover and refrigerate dough until firm, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line large baking sheets with parchment paper.

Using half the edge of a 1 1/2-inch round cookie cutter, cut out crescents about 3/4 inch thick at widest point. Press a tiny piece of crystallized ginger near one tapered end.

One cookie sheet at a time, bake on the middle rack of the oven until the edges are lightly golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool cookies on baking sheets set on wire racks.
