Big Soft Ginger Cookies image

I love these. I used to have a recipe for Soft Ginger Snaps and this is pretty close to those.

Categories     Cookies

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/4 c all purpose flour
2 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 c butter or margarine, softened
1 c white sugar
1 egg
1 Tbsp water
1/4 c molasses
2 Tbsp white sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Sift together the flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and salt.
  • 2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and 1 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Beat the egg, and stir into the water and molasses. Gradually stir the sifted ingredients into the molasses mixture. Shape dough into walnut size balls, and roll them into the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar. Place the cookies 2 inches apart onto an ungreased cookie sheet, and flatten slightly.
  • 3. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an air tight container.

These cookies were a bit too cakey for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try baking them for a few minutes more next time.

These cookies were a bit too dry for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding a bit more butter next time.

These cookies were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think I'll try using less ginger next time.

These cookies were a bit too crumbly for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding an extra egg next time.

I'm not a big fan of ginger, but these cookies were surprisingly delicious. The ginger flavor was subtle and not overpowering, and the cookies were perfectly soft and chewy.
