Gingersnaps with white chocolate


I made a few different kinds of cookies and put them in the freezer for when Matt's family came to visit. I got the idea for these cookies when I went to my old wards Super Saturday activity and Jean Boothe made these. It's a gingersnap recipe from allrecipes.com that I just added white chocolate chips to. Yum!
