I had just done all my Christmas baking and was just enjoying that up-to-date feeling when .... you publish the Ginger Squares recipe! I just HAD to try them ...immediately. (I always keep my pantry well stocked - just for occasions like this :) I made them exactly as the recipe says although I think I added a minute or two extra to the baking time. They are ABSOLUTELY amazing! As for storage - after they cooled, I packed them into some Christmas tins I stack up in the kitchen as part of my decor - and a week later, they are as delicious as when I first made them. They have a strong, substantial ginger flavour; soft and chewy, bit of real ginger.. hmhmhm! Excellent recipe - thank you King Arthur team. Also just HAVE to say how much I enjoyed your Holiday greeting video - certainly spread cheer!
Thanks for the good words, Tanya. We had a great time making the video, too. I made the ginger squares during the middle of the ordering/packing push for the crew downstairs in the warehouse and the grain room, and they were still swooning at the memory a week later, so I know what you mean!
