The realisation that jerk powder has almost the same ingredients as spice for ginger-snaps, led me to the idea of adding some hab powder to the latest batch. Using a recipe from BC, I reduced the cinammon and clove powder by 1/4 tsp and added 3/4 tsp allspice and 1/2 tsp hab powder. Brought the results to this morning's coffee break. Some were burned to death, some found it hot, other's mild. To those that found them hot, others pointed out that my peanut-brittle had been much hotter. In any case, the hab laden ginger-snaps had the same characteristic of a half-minute delay before the hot kicked in. Tom P.S. Needless to say, many of the wimps were loathe to try my 'Kugelhopf met Nussa un Spack', which conatained no chiles whatsoever. Their loss.
