Steps:
- Whisk together flour, ground ginger, pepper, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl; set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together butter, brown and granulated sugars, and grated ginger until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add golden syrup and continue to beat, scraping down sides as necessary, until thoroughly combined. Mix in crystallized ginger. Reduce speed to low and add flour mixture; mix until just combined. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours.
- Using a 1/4-cup ice cream scoop, drop dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. If dough becomes soft, refrigerate 20 minutes.
- Roll dough into balls between your palms, then roll in sanding sugar to coat. Place 6 balls each on two fresh parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing at least 2 inches apart. Freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake, rotating halfway through, until edges are golden, 17 to 20 minutes. Let cool on sheets 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.

In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the brown sugar, oil, and molasses on medium speed for 5 minutes. Turn the mixer to low speed, add the egg, and beat for 1 minute. Scrape the bowl with a rubber spatula and beat for 1 more minute. With the mixer still on low, slowly add the dry ingredients to the bowl and mix on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add the crystallized ginger and mix until combined.
- Scoop the dough with 2 spoons or a small ice cream scoop. With your hands, roll each cookie into a 1 3/4-inch ball and then flatten them lightly with your fingers. Press both sides of each cookie in granulated sugar and place them on the sheet pans. Bake for exactly 13 minutes. The cookies will be crackled on the top and soft inside. Let the cookies cool on the sheets for 1 to 2 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
