Ginger Wafers

Stir half a cup of butter to a cream.

Add gradually one cup of pulverized sugar and one tablespoon of ginger. Add half a cup of cold water and two cups of sifted flour. Spread thin on a baking sheet and bake in a cool oven. Cut into squares, triangles or cubes with a sharp knife and remove from the baking sheet by slipping a limber knife under them. The baking sheet should be well greased and quite cold when the dough is spread on it.-Emma P. Ewing.
