📝 Instructions

11 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, ground ginger, cinnamon, cloves, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together using a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

4. Add the molasses, egg, and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat until fully incorporated.

5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a dough forms.

6. Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon.

7. Scoop 1-inch balls of dough using a cookie scoop or your hands. Roll each ball in powdered sugar until fully coated.

8. Place the powdered-sugar-coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

9. Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the cookies are just set and the tops have crinkled.

10. Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

11. Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
