Using a paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar until smooth. Scrape down the bowl occasionally to make sure it is well blended. Add in the eggs, one at a time. Then add in the vanilla.
Mix flour, baking powder, salt, and ginger powder. Add in to the Butter, sugar, egg base in the mixer. Mix at slow speed until well incorporated, again, scrape the bowl as needed to incorporate well. Once a dough has formed, fold in the chocolate chips and ginger. Mix until evenly incorporated.
Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Spray with pan spray and scoop the cookie dough. You can use a spoon or a small ice cream scoop. Be sure to leave ample space between cookies. They will spread as they cook. Bake at 350 for 10 to 12 minutes until golden brown. They will still be a little soft. But, the dough should be cooked through. If you want them a bit stiffer, leave in longer.
Allow cookies to cool, and eat at will.
