Dark Molasses Ginger Ginger Cookies Recipes

BEST EVER GINGER MOLASSES COOKIES (BETTER THAN STARBUCKS!)

Steps:

• Add the butter to the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Cream the butter on medium high speed until it is soft and creamy and the colour begins to turn pale (use a hand mixer if you wish).
• Add the sugar and beat on medium high speed for 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl a few times.
• Beat in the eggs on medium high speed one at a time, scraping down the bowl after each addition.
• Beat in the molasses and scrape down the bowl to ensure everything is evenly combined.
• In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, grated ginger, cinnamon, cloves and salt. Whisk these ingredients together to they're combined and dump the mixture into the bowl of the stand mixer with the butter mixture.
• Combine the butter mixture and the dry ingredients on low speed just until no streaks of flour remain. You'll have to scrape down the sides of the bowl a few times to make sure everything is incorporated.
• Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for one hour.
• After one hour has passed, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Remove the dough from the fridge and shape it into about 36 balls with your hands, rolling each ball of dough in the white sugar and placing it on a baking sheet prepared with some parchment paper. Remember to space the cookies out appropriately...this recipe makes about 3 dozen cookies so you'll likely need to bake 3 or more sheets of cookies.
• Bake each sheet of cookies for 10-11 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• When you remove the baking sheet from the oven, let the cookies cool on the baking sheet until they've cooled almost completely. This will help them achieve that soft and chewy texture as they continue to bake on the inside even after they've been removed from the oven.

• Beat the butter and sugar together in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until well combined, about 3 minutes. Add the molasses and egg and beat until lighter in color, about 3 minutes. Add the flour mixture and mix on low until well blended.
• Using a tablespoon, form the dough into 1-inch balls and roll in sugar. Place each ball 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake until golden and crackled, 12 to 15 minutes; the cookies will still be a little soft. Baking these in 3 batches one sheet at a time gets you the nice, crackly top. The second sheet of cookies can stay on the counter until ready to bake. Form the remaining dough, roll the balls in sugar and place on the now cooled first baking sheet. Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet, and then remove to a rack to cool completely.

• Using a #20 cookie scoop or a 1/4 cup measure, scoop balls of dough, and gently flatten to form 2-1/2 to 3 inch discs.
• Roll each disc in the ginger sugar, and place on the lined cookie sheet, leaving about 3 inches between each cookie.
• Bake 12-15 minutes, until just golden brown around the edges, but still slightly soft. Do not overbake.
• Remove from the oven and immediately slide the paper or mat onto a metal rack to cool.
• I use a small cookie scoop for these to make smaller (and more!) cookies. Start out baking them for 8 minutes and then adjust the time accordingly.
