CHEWY GINGER MOLASSES COOKIES

These Chewy Ginger Molasses Cookies are easy to make, super-soft and chewy, and irresistibly delicious.

TOTAL TIME: 25 MINS PREP TIME: 15 MINS COOK TIME: 10 MINS
INGREDIENTS:

• 1 ½ cups unsalted butter, softened to room temperature (not melted*)
• 1 cup granulated (white) sugar
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• ½ cup molasses
• 2 eggs
• 4 ½ cups (528 grams) all-purpose flour (I recommend weighing your flour for accuracy)
• 4 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 tablespoon ground ginger
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon ground cloves
• 1 teaspoon salt

DIRECTIONS:

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, soda, cinnamon, cloves, ginger and salt. Set aside.
2. Using a separate mixing bowl, either with a stand mixer or a hand mixer, cream together the softened butter and sugars on medium-high speed until the mixture is light and fluffy and a pale yellow color, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides occasionally as needed. Mix in the eggs (one at a time) and molasses, and beat on medium-low speed until each is combined. Gradually add in the dry ingredient mixture and beat until it is evenly incorporated.
3. Transfer the dough to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the dough is completely chilled.
4. Preheat oven to 350°F.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
5. Roll the dough into small balls, about 1-inch in diameter. Fill a separate small bowl with sugar, and roll each ball in the sugar until it is completely coated. Place dough balls on the prepared baking sheet.
