Fold in the candied ginger pieces. Let the dough rest for 10 minutes at room temperature.4. Roll the dough into tablespoon-size balls (if the dough is too sticky add 2-4 additional tablespoons flour). Place on the prepared baking sheet, spacing the cookies 2 inches apart. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the cookies are just starting to set around the edges, the centers should be doughy. Tap the pan 2-3 times on the counter to set the cookies. Let cool on the pan.5. Meanwhile, make the icing. Add the butter to a pot set over medium heat. Allow the butter to brown lightly until it smells toasted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from the heat. Whisk in the powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons milk, and a pinch of salt. Immediately spread the icing over the cookies, it will set quickly. Sprinkle with nutmeg or cinnamon, if desired. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
