Ginger Snap Cookies



This recipe can be modified
by using vegan butter instead of regular butter, you can also use coconut sugar instead of brown sugar.
For vegan option use 1 tbsp of ground flax mixed with 2 tbsp of warm water stir together to create a binder.
Gluten free four blend can be used  instead of wheat flour.

This recipe has been a true family favorite in my house. When we make these cookies they tend to get eaten up pretty quickly so make sure to double the recipe so you have some extras to give to your family and friends. Just don't be surprised if they keep asking you to make more.
They really are so good!!!
