CHEWY MOLASSES-SPICE COOKIES image

Yield 36 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cup(s) all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
1 1/2 teaspoon(s) baking soda
1 teaspoon(s) ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon(s) ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
1 1/2 cup(s) sugar
3/4 cup(s) (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg
1/4 cup(s) molasses

Steps:

  • 1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. In a shallow bowl, place 1/2 cup sugar; set aside. 2.With an electric mixer, beat butter and remaining cup of sugar until combined. Beat in egg and then molasses until combined. Reduce speed to low; gradually mix in dry ingredients, just until a dough forms. 3.Pinch off and roll dough into balls, each equal to 1 tablespoon. Roll balls in reserved sugar to coat. 4.Arrange balls on baking sheets, about 3 inches apart. Bake, one sheet at a time, until edges of cookies are just firm, 10 to 15 minutes (cookies can be baked two sheets at a time, but they will not crackle uniformly). Cool 1 minute on baking sheets; transfer to racks to cool completely. Store in an airtight container up to 4 days.

I had a hard time getting the cookies to spread out. They ended up being more like balls than cookies.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still pretty good.

I'm not a huge fan of molasses, but these cookies are really good. The spices help to balance out the molasses flavor.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover molasses. They're also a nice change from the usual chocolate chip cookie.

These cookies are *heavenly*! The molasses and spices give them a warm and inviting flavor, and the chewiness is perfect. I love that they're not too sweet, so I can enjoy a few without feeling guilty.
