Triple Ginger Cookies!

After being sick for 2 weeks, what better way to come back to baking than use the miracle root Ginger.  Ginger has helped me through many a cold and stomach ailment.  I am paying homage to it in what I would call a cookie that is "good" for you.

2 1/4 Cups Flour
2 tsps Baking Soda
2 tsp Cinnamon
2 tsps Ground Ginger

**Sift and Set aside**

1 stick Melted Butter
1/2 cup White Sugar
1/3 cup Brown Sugar
1/4 cup Molasses
1 Egg
2 Tbsp Grated FRESH Ginger

**Mix in mixer until well incorporated** Add dry ingredients to the butter/ginger mixture**

3/4 Diced CRYSTALIZED Ginger - I found mine at Trader Joes.  Penzy's also carries it.

**Add diced ginger to the dough mixture**

Scoop into 1 inch balls and roll each ball in either white sugar or raw sugar for more texture.

Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.
