Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour 260 grams, or white whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 2 teaspoons ground ginger
- 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon cloves ground
- ½ teaspoon salt sea salt
- ½ cup butter softened, unsalted
- ½ cup light brown sugar packed
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ⅓ cup unsulphured molasses or dark molasses
- 1 egg at room temp
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup granulated sugar for rolling, or cane sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the dry ingredients. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter, brown sugar and white sugar until creamy, about 2 minutes. Beat in molasses, egg and vanilla until combined.
- With the mixer on low, gradually add the flour mixture, beating just until incorporated.
- Chill dough for 1 hour
- Using hands, roll dough into 3/4-1 inch balls. Place sugar in a shallow bowl and roll each ball of dough in the sugar to coat. Transfer cookies to prepared baking sheets, spacing evenly.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes or until dark golden brown and puffy, rotating the baking sheet halfway through baking. Remove from oven and let them cool slightly before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
