Lara’s Tender Gingersnaps

This recipe came from Taste of Home. I made a few changes in an attempt to make it higher in fiber and protein, (whole wheat pastry flour instead of all-purpose flour) and lower in carbs and sugar, (used Truvia Brown Sugar Blend instead of regular brown sugar). Used very little sugar to roll cookies in before baking. We like them with a little pumpkin pie dip. See link below. 😉
