    Welcome to the Cayenne Channel! This is a 12-step program that takes you not out of addiction, but into it, where Chef John is not your pusher or enabler, but your guru into gustatorial nirvana. I made these tonight and they are fabulous. The cayenne is very subtle--the candied ginger is the real star but the pepper gives it a little kick. Put a little vanilla ice cream between two of these cookies and you have a real 5 star desert. Once again, my toque is off to you Chef John!

    I made these as part of Christmas cookies and candy packages to send my brothers. (Just catching up on comments) They were so good my bro’s were lucky they got any. I love ginger, I often make my own crystallized ginger and ginger simple syrup. I also like heat- hot chocolate and chocolate cakes usually get cayenne. So... when I watched this recipe I knew I was making them. (I sound like I’m baking and cooking all the time- trust me- it’s not usual but I have to say Chef John does get me a little more motivated than is usual.) Anyway, I bought the crystallized ginger because I had enough to do. I started getting all the ingredients together and... OH NO- I was out of ginger. I had just thrown a whole bunch of OLD spices out! I don’t have a car so running out to the store was not Avon option. I did have fresh ginger though and I damn well wanted these cookies. So I peeled a hunk, tossed it in the food chopper, chopped it finely and spread it out on a parchment lined cookie sheet. I popped it in a low oven for awhile till it dried out. Put it back in chopper- couldn’t get it fine enough so put it in the coffee grinder, sifted it and oh my god- divine! I’ll never by ground ginger again. Which since I’m 70 it’s not going to be like I’m making ginger for decades! Lol. Anyway- I got to have my ginger snaps and so did my brothers. Scrumptious. I wish I had added a little more cayenne- next time.

    I wanted to increase the fiber in mine, and so I did them with 2/3 parts oat flour. Really seems to help make them dense and chewy, but I'm betting it muted my flavors a tad. Next time I'll try half and half to see if I can achieve a better crumb. These are going to become my new go-to recipe!

    Chef John, I’ve noticed people occasionally make a request so I will do so though not something I would normally do uninvited. But it is called “Food Wishes” after all. I make ginger simple syrup but I just cannot get it hot/spicy/gingery enough no matter how long I simmer, how much I reduce. I’ve added peppercorns, I’ve added whole cloves. I want that ginger beer kind of taste which is why I started making it. I use it on everything, in tea, fruit and yogurt, on sweet potatoes with butter, on ice cream, on waffles, on ice cream and waffles! I do put it in seltzer but it’s not the taste I’m looking for. I love beer and ginger beer mixed so I was trying to get that. If you can get around to it - How about a lesson in a hot gingery simple syrup? Please.

    Cinnamon, ground ginger and Cardamon are my go to spices for ginger cookies.

    I made these, but I didn't have the candied ginger. They did turn out so good. Thanks for the recipe
