Yield Makes 16 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground clove
1/2 cup shortening, melted and cooled
1 large egg
1/4 cup unsulfured molasses
3/4 cup rolled oats

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with silpats.
  • Sift together flour, 1 cup of the sugar, baking soda, salt, ground ginger, and ground clove into a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the shortening, egg, and molasses. Mix until smooth. Add oatmeal and stir until just incorporated.
  • Using a 1-ounce ice cream scoop, scoop batter onto baking sheets, about 3 inches apart. In a small bowl, place 1/4 cup sugar. Dip the bottom of a glass in sugar and press down on each scoop of dough until it is about 1/4-inch thick, dipping the glass in sugar between each one. For your first dip, you may want to press the bottom of the glass onto a cookie. The moisture from the cookie will allow the sugar to stick to the glass.
  • Bake until brown and crisp, about 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool.

I'm not a big fan of molasses cookies, but I'm willing to give this recipe a try.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies turned out flat and dry. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I've tried many molasses cookie recipes, but this one is by far the best! The cookies are soft and chewy, with a perfect balance of spices. I love the addition of raisins, which gives them a nice chewy texture.

These molasses cookies were a hit with my family! They were soft and chewy on the inside, with a crispy edge. The molasses flavor was perfect, not too strong or too weak. I will definitely be making these again.
