Ingredients
- 3/4 /4 cup butter softened, unsalted
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 1 egg
- 1/4 /4 cup molasses
- 2 1/2 /2 cups all-purpose flour spooned into measuring cups
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 /2 teaspoon cloves ground
- 1/4 /4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 /2 cup sugar for rolling
Frosting:
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1/4 /4 cup butter softened
- 1/2 /2 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and molasses and mix until combined.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt. Slowly mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Roll 1.5 inch balls of dough and roll in sugar. The dough will be soft. If you want to chill it to make it easier to roll you can.
- Place on baking sheets at least 2 inches apart and bake for 8-10 minutes. Let cookies rest on the cookie sheet. They will continue to bake while cooling.
- For the frosting: In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, butter, vanilla, and powdered sugar. Once the ingredients have combined, whip the frosting until fluffy. If your ingredients are softened you shouldn't have to add any milk but you can add a dash if needed.
- To frost the cookies, spread a small layer on one cookie and top with another cookie. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
