- 2 eggs
- 3 Cups all-purpose flour
- Two 3 1/2-ounce packages cook-and-serve butterscotch pudding mix
- 3 Teaspoons ground ginger

Directions
In a large bowl, cream the butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs. Combine the flour, pudding mixes, ginger, baking powder, and cinnamon; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or until easy to handle.
