Soft Ginger Cookies

Soft, chewy, and loaded with ginger flavor! We most often make these during the holidays, but there's no need to limit them to once per year.

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Add the butter and sugar to a bowl and beat with a mixer until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add the egg and molasses and beat until combined.
  4. Add the flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and salt to the bowl and beat until combined.
  5. Use a medium cookie scoop to scoop out dough. Roll the dough between your hands to shape. Roll each cookie dough ball into sugar to coat the outsides.
