Ingredients:
2 eggs
2 cups sugar
3/4 cup butter, melted
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups finely chopped pecans
cookie frosting
8 (1-ounce) squares semi-sweet chocolate, melted
Directions:
1. Combine eggs, sugar, and butter in a medium mixing bowl; beat well. Combine flour, baking powder, salt, and spices. Gradually add flour mixture to egg mixture; mix well. Stir in water, vanilla, and pecans.
2. Divide dough into fourths; wrap in foil, and chill at least 2 hours. Roll 1 portion to 1/8-inch thickness on a well-floured surface; keep remaining dough chilled until ready to roll.
3. Cut dough into 3-inch circles. Place on lightly greased baking sheets. Bake at 375° for 8 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove immediately to wire rack to cool. Repeat with remaining dough. Decorate with frosting and melted chocolate.
