These crispy ginger logs got their name because the thin chocolate coating on top makes them look like eclairs when they're lined up on a platter. Play around with other types of chocolate coating if you like – milk, dark and white chocolates are all delicious with the slightly spicy ginger.

Ingredients

Method

Use our Basic Ginger Cookie Dough recipe.

Roll dough by 1 tbsp into balls; roll each into about 3-1/2-inch (9 cm) long? log. Place logs, 2 inches (5 cm) apart, on parchment paper-lined rimless baking sheets.

Bake, 1 sheet at a time, in 350 F (180 C) oven until firm to the touch, 12 minutes. Let cool on pans on racks for 5 minutes. Transfer to racks; let cool completely.

Spread about 1 tsp of the chocolate over top of each cookie. Let stand until chocolate is firm, about 1 hour.

Make-ahead: Layer between waxed paper in airtight container and store for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 weeks.
