If you’re ever home sick fighting a cold, ginger is good for colds. So naturally, ginger cookies should work, right? Do yourselves a favor and make these gluten free, refined sugar free gingersnap cookies this weekend! They’re so chewy and amazing. (I stuffed one with cashew butter which is what you see stacked on top!)
