Directions
South African Ginger Cookies, Really nice ginger cookies, these, which have come a long way and are favourites for holiday times It’s a large recipe, meant for summer Christmas holidays on the sea! Please note that the cookie dough needs a couple of hours rest time in the fridge before baking This was not added to the preparation time , My 1st attempt & I was impressed Easy to follow Clear instructions & tasty It was less cloves because I didn’t have, Does anybody know if these cookies are the same as the ones known as Gemmer Jantjies in South Africa?
