Ingredients

Servings
  • ½ cup butter softened, unsalted, 115 g
  • ½ cup granulated sugar 100g
  • ½ cup molasses 165g
  • 1 egg
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour 600g
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon cloves ground
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar for coating unbaked cookies, 50g
  • ½ cup white chocolate or white candy melts, chunks, 85g
  • Sprinkles if desired, Christmas

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and ½ cup of sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Add the molasses and egg to the mixture, and beat until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet, mixing until a dough forms. Cover and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
  5. Preheat your air fryer to 350 degrees F / 180 degrees C. Shape the dough into small balls (about 1-inch in diameter) and roll in the remaining sugar until fully coated.
  6. Place in the air fryer basket, leaving some space between each cookie ball.
  7. Air fry for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies are set and slightly cracked on top.
  8. When done, Remove from the air fryer and set on a wire rack to cool.
  9. To decorate, dip half of each cookie in melted white chocolate or drizzle white chocolate over the cookies, then top with sprinkles.

Notes

  • Bring the butter and egg to room temperature before combining with the other ingredients.
  • Carefully measure your ingredients, and use a kitchen scale to ensure you use the right amounts.
  • Use dark molasses if you prefer your cookies to have a stronger molasses flavor.
  • For even more gingersnap flavor, add another ¼ teaspoon of ground ginger to the batter.
  • Line your air fryer basket with parchment paper to prevent cookies from sticking and make cleanup a breeze.
  • Make sure to preheat your air fryer before adding the cookies for best results.
  • Air fryer temperatures can vary depending on the make and model. I recommend starting with less time, checking food for doneness, and then adding more time as needed.
  • Storage – these cookies can be kept in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
