Name: Brown Sugar Ginger Crisps
Cook time: 1 hr
Total time: 1 1/2 hr
Yield: Makes about 5 dozen cookies
Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour; 3/4 teaspoon baking powder; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened; 1 cup packed light brown sugar; 1 large egg yolk; 1 teaspoon vanilla; 1/2 cup finely chopped crystallized ginger (3 oz); 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
