I have lost a great recipe, and I want to know if anyone here has it.

It was in the New York Times from the 1980's or early 1990's. It's a
recipe for Ginger Snaps that uses shortening. To bake the cookie you
make a ball, roll it in sugar, press it with a fork and bake. It is
the best Ginger Snap I've ever made and I have lost the recipe.

Any help will be appreciated! Thanks

www.google.ca is your friend. I did a search on "ny times ginger snaps
recipe" and found http://baking.about.com/library/recipes/uc005.htm. I'm
not sure if this is it but it looks like it.
