Soft Molasses Spice Cookies image

No hockey pucks here - gingersnaps without the snap! Granted, if you like crispy cookies, simply bake a few minutes longer. I just made these tonight with my 20 month old, so the prep time is approximate - I'm sure it took us longer than usual. :) Prep time includes chill time. This is another of my mom's recipes, modified to make it slightly healthier. I hope you enjoy! We sure did, with a big glass of cold milk before DD's bedtime.

Scrumptious! The ginger and molasses flavors blended perfectly, and the spice combination gave the cookies a delightful warmth. The texture was chewy and soft, just as I prefer.
