Ingredients
- 1 cup dark brown sugar packed
- 3/4 cup butter softened
- 1/4 cup molasses
- 1 egg
- 2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon allspice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or non stick baking mats.
- Place the brown sugar, butter, egg and molasses in the bowl of a mixer. Beat for 2-3 minutes or until smooth.
- Add the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, allspice and salt to the bowl. Stir until just combined.
- Roll the dough into 1 1/2 inch balls. Coat each ball in granulated sugar and place 2 inches apart on the prepared pans.
- Place the pans in the freezer and chill for 20 minutes.
- Bake each pan of cookies for 14-16 minutes or until just set. Cool for 5 minutes, then transfer the cookies to a rack. Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Notes
- Coat your measuring cup with cooking spray to keep the molasses from sticking.
- To keep your balls the same size, scoop the dough with a tablespoon or a small ice cream scoop. They also make special small scoops designed for cookie baking.
- You can make your cookies larger or smaller than what the recipe calls for depending on how many people you're looking to serve. Simply adjust the cooking time up or down accordingly.
