Gingersnap Cookies That Bite Ya!

These are yummy! I merged a few recipes to come up this one that I really like! The originals all called for molasses (blech) and shortening (blech) as well as half the spice amounts (and none of the cloves and cayenne). I also decided to use whole wheat flour for some of the required flour amount.

3/4 cup butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
1/4 cup dark corn syrup
1 egg
1 1/4 cup flour
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1 tsp ginger
1 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cloves
1/4 tsp cayenne

Mix all ingredients. Chill mixture. Roll into balls. Bake at 350 for 9 minutes. These will be soft when coming out of oven, but will become crispier as they cool.
