Yield Makes about 2 1/2 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
Pinch kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
3/4 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar, plus more for rolling
1 large egg
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup molasses

Steps:

  • 1. Sift the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves, and allspice into a large bowl.
  • 2. Put the butter, dark brown sugar, and granulated sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer and cream them together on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the egg and the vanilla and beat to incorporate. Add the molasses and beat until combined.
  • 3. Working in three batches, gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet, mixing on low speed to incorporate between additions. Turn the dough out onto a sheet of plastic wrap; tightly wrap, and chill for 30 minutes and up to overnight.
  • 4. When ready to bake the cookies, position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 325°F. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  • 5. Scoop out 2-inch balls of dough and roll them in granulated sugar to coat; place on the baking sheets at least 2 to 3 inches apart. Press each down gently with your fingers to flatten slightly. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, rotating the cookie sheets halfway through baking.
  • 6. Transfer the cookies to racks to cool; serve right away or keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

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

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.

These molasses cookies are the perfect balance of chewy and crispy. They're also incredibly flavorful, with a deep molasses flavor that's complemented by the spices. I will definitely be making these again!
