  • Sift together flour, baking soda, salt and spices. Set aside.

  • Add egg whites and beat for another minute until well combined.
  • Slowly whisk in dry ingredients and beat until completely incorporated. Stir in candied ginger. Chill dough for at least one hour. (I chilled mine overnight)
  • Preheat oven to 35
