I had a hard time finding molasses at my local grocery store. I ended up using brown sugar instead and the cookies still turned out great.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of molasses cookies, but these were actually really good. The molasses flavor is subtle and the cookies are nice and chewy.

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