Steps:
- To Make Ahead: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
- Nancy Caverly gave her grandmother's recipe for ginger molasses cookies a little makeover-reducing the butter and adding crystallized ginger for a spicy jolt.
- Beat butter and 1 cup sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until creamy. Add egg and molasses. Mix well.
- Whisk flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, cloves and ginger in another large bowl until well blended. Stir in crystallized ginger.
- Blend the flour mixture into the butter mixture a cup at a time, mixing well, until it is all incorporated. Chill the dough in the refrigerator until firm, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 375degreesF. Lightly coat 2 baking sheets with cooking spray.
- Place the remaining 1/3 cup sugar in a shallow dish. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and then roll in the sugar. Place 1 1/2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake the cookies, in batches, until they crackle on top, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

[email protected]I thought these Molasses Crackles were just okay. They were a little too sweet for my taste and the ginger flavor was a bit too strong. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
