Last year, a friend gave me a bag of shortbread like cookies with chopped crystalized ginger in them. They were A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! She was kind enough to share the recipe and that is what I am planning to make and give to the neighbours this year (with a nice amount left for me of course!!)
Other than that, Peppernuts are a family tradition and it seems I am the only one who has the time to go through all the steps required.
I am thinking I would like to make some Matrimonial cake (date squares for all you non Canadian prairie folk) because I love it and it has been a very long 20 months without the excuse that I need to make treats for my sewing group.
