Jen is currently making these cookies. By "currently" I mean "at this very second." I have a question: if she uses butter instead of margarine, will the cookies explode??? Please respond ASAP. Thank you.
Ok, so nothing has exploded...yet. We are still alive, the apartment is still not in flames. Jen just added the ground ginger, successfully. At this very second, she is rummaging through a tupperware bin of spices we brought back from old India, looking for some Indian cloves to grind and add to your cookie potion. What do you think about that??? You ever had anybody use Real Deal Indian Cloves straight from India in your ginger cookies of destiny? Please respond at your convenience.
