Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, salt, and nutmeg. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the butter and brown sugar until smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes.
- Add the egg and vanilla and mix until combined. Pour in the molasses and beat until well combined.
- Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Don’t over mix.
- Take about 1 tablespoon of cookie dough and wrap around one Rolo candy. Make sure the Rolo is completely covered with cookie dough. Place the sugar in a small bowl. Roll the dough ball in the sugar until completely coated. Place the cookie dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, about 2-inches apart.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or just until the cookies are barely set around the edges and soft in the centers. Don’t over bake. Remove from the oven and let the cookies sit on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
