MAINE MULTI-SPICE COOKIES(MAINE CHEWIES)



Maine Multi-Spice Cookies(Maine Chewies) image

Adapted from Yankee magazine. Supposedly a version of this recipe is served on board the "Mary Day," a schooner from Maine. Any cookie with cardamom in it is a cookie for me. These are by far the best tasting spice cookies I have ever tried. Please use a wooden spoon to mix the dough - an electric mixer might make the dough too tough.

Time 42m

Yield 4 1/2 dozen, 54 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup sweet unsalted butter, melted and cooled to room temperature
2 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon baking soda (really that much)
1/4 cup lukewarm water
1/4 cup molasses
4 cups all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Combine butter, sugar, all 5 spices, and salt in a large mixing bowl, mixing well with a wooden spoon.
  • Dissolve baking soda in the warm water and then stir into the butter mixture.
  • Stir in the molasses and the lightly beaten egg, mixing well.
  • Add flour,1 cup at a time, stirring to mix- the dough will be quite stiff (be sure to scrape all the way down to the bottom of the bowl to mix evenly).
  • Scoop the dough into walnut sized lumps (about 1 Tbsp or so) and drop onto greased or parchment-lined baking sheets, about 2" apart.
  • Bake in a preheated 350°F oven for 8-12 minutes, or until crackled and browned. They will look very, very soft in the middles but as long as you can lift them with a spatula they are ready.
  • Let cool 1 minute on pans before carefully lifting with a spatula to cooling racks.
  • Finished cookies should be somewhat chewy.
