MOLASSES CRINKLE COOKIES (BAKER CHICK SITE) image

Number Of Ingredients 22

2/3 cup vegetable oil*
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup molasses
1 egg
1 teaspoon ginger **
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 cups plus 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
Sugar for rolling (optional)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350. Prepare a baking sheet with a silpat or parchment paper. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine oil and sugars, whisking until smooth. Add molasses, vanilla and egg and whisk until well-combined.
Sprinkle the spices, baking soda and flour over the wet ingredients and fold together gently using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Either just scoop dough onto the cookie sheet 2-3 inches apart and bake as is, or roll 1 1/2 inch sized balls in sugar and place onto the cookie sheet.
Bake for 8-10 minutes until the edges are set and the middles are cracked. Place cookies a piece of wax paper to cool. Cookies will stay chewy for up to a week in an air-tight container.
Notes
*I used light olive oil the first time I made these and then made a second batch with half light olive oil and half coconut oil. They tasted great both ways, but I think light olive oil or other vegetable oil gives a much more cracked appearance.
**These cookies aren't overly spicy letting the molasses flavor shine. If you want more spice use heaping teaspoons of the ginger and cinnamon.
