Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¾ teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon ground cloves
2 teaspoons baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
¾ cup vegetable shortening
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
½ cup molasses
1 cup chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone liner. Whisk together the flour, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, baking soda, and salt in a bowl until thoroughly combined.
  • In a large bowl, mash vegetable shortening and sugar together until smooth and creamy; mix in the egg and molasses. Stir the flour mixture into the molasses mixture to make a smooth dough, and mix in the chocolate chips. Drop by scant tablespoon or small dough scoop about 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until slightly golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Allow to cool on sheets 1 to 2 minutes before removing to finish cooling on wire racks.

The cookies were delicious, but they were a little too sweet for me. Next time, I'll reduce the amount of sugar by 1/4 cup.
