ISO - Ginger Cookie With 3 Kinds of Ginger

[blazedog]

I thought I had saved a cookie recipe from around Christmas time that used three kinds of ginger -- powdered, freshly grated and candied.
It might have come from Sara Moulton's show.

Does anybody have this recipe. It might have come from the FoodTV 12 Days of Christmas cookie list -- maybe a Sara Moulton recipe - but nothing came up on that site.

Thanks.

These only use 2 kinds of ginger, might be possible to tweak the recipe to use 3, but they are excellent like this. Made them several times and they go fast.
