There are things you don't realise you miss until you suddenly can't have them anymore, even things you never even liked all that much to begin with (like donuts, my kingdom for a donut). Cookies, here in South Africa we call them biscuits as well, was one of these. A friend requested that I make ginger biscuits and since I am currently obsessed with ginger flavoured everything - why not? So this recipe was created, and it's definitely gone down as one of my favourites.
