Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 60 ml Molasses
- 1 large Egg
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Ground cloves
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 50 grams Additional sugar (for rolling)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the molasses and egg to the bowl and beat until fully combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, ground cloves, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients while mixing on low speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until the dough just comes together.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, portion out the dough and roll each piece into a ball.
Roll each dough ball in the additional sugar to coat evenly.
Place the coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them at least 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
