Gingersnap Molasses Cookies

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup butter, room temperature
  • 1 ½ cups Level Ground Cane Sugar
  • 1/2 cup molasses
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 3 ¼ all purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp ground ginger
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 cup sugar, for rolling

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 °F. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl with a hand mixer, beat the softened butter and cane sugar together until creamy. Add the molasses and vanilla and beat in until smooth. Scrape the sides as needed with spatula.
  3. Add 2 cups of flour to the bowl, then sprinkle the baking soda, salt, ginger, cinnamon, and nutmeg on top of the flour. Mix on low speed to combine. Now add the remaining 1 ¼ cups flour and mix until incorporated. The dough will be quite thick, but not dry.
  4. Fill a small bowl with the cup of sugar for rolling.
  5. Scoop out about 2 tbsp of dough per cookie, roll into a ball, then roll each ball in sugar until completely coated.
  6. Place on the prepared baking sheets, and bake for 11-12 minutes, until they begin to crack on top. They will look very soft, but they firm up a lot as they cool. If you over bake, they will be crispy.
  7. Let cool for 10-15 minutes, then enjoy!
