Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon fine sea salt
½ teaspoon ground allspice
¼ teaspoon grated nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
½ cup packed brown sugar
½ cup Stevia In The Raw® Bakers Bag
⅓ cup unsulfured molasses
¼ cup applesauce
1 (1 inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
1 large egg
1 (4 ounce) package cold cream cheese, cubed
½ stick unsalted butter, softened
¼ cup powdered sugar, sifted
¼ cup Stevia In The Raw® Bakers Bag
½ teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, allspice, nutmeg, and cloves.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together brown sugar, stevia, molasses, applesauce, ginger, and egg. Fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients just until combined. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Use a tablespoon to scoop out dough. Roll dough into balls. Place on the baking sheet 1 inch apart. Very slightly flatten cookies with your palm.
  • Bake until puffy and set, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool completely.
  • For frosting, in a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat cream cheese on medium speed until very smooth. With mixer running, add butter a little at a time, beating constantly. Add powdered sugar, stevia, and vanilla and beat just until smooth.
  • Use a small offset spatula to spread frosting on top of cookies.
