The ingredients for Gingerbread with Fresh Ginger are:

1 c shortening
1 c sugar
1 c dark molasses (I use blackstrap)
1/2 c water
5 c flour (I use 3 c all-purpose and 2 c ww pastry flour)
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp ground ginger
1 TBS freshly grated ginger root
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp allspice

Here is how you make Gingerbread with Fresh Ginger:

Cream shortening and sugar; blend in all other ingredients. (You will want to use a mixer with a cookie paddle or dough hook - the dough is stiff.) Cover and CHILL for 2-3 hours! (I always forget this needs to happen.)Preheat oven to 375. Roll dough out to 1/4" thick on lightly-floured surface (I use a silicone mat and it works very well.). Cut into shapes (sometimes I just do squares!), place on ungreased baking sheet and bake for 10-12 min. You can use parchment paper for easy removal. Immediately remove from baking sheet and cool completely before stacking.Serving Size: makes about 4 dozen cookiesNumber of Servings: 48Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user ASLANSCUB.
