Time 15m

Yield 3 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups unbleached flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground fresh nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves (my addition)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups sugar
3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg
1/4 cup unsulphured molasses

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ground cloves, and salt.
  • In a shallow bowl, place 1/2 cup sugar; set aside.
  • With an electric mixer, beat butter and remaining 1 cup of sugar until combined. Beat in egg and then molasses until incorporated.
  • Reduce speed to low; gradually mix in dry ingredients, *just* until a dough forms.
  • Pinch off and roll dough into 1" balls. Roll balls in the reserved sugar to coat.
  • Arrange balls on parchment lined baking sheets, about 3 inches apart. Bake, one sheet at a time, until edges are just firm and top of cookies have a "crackle" effect, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Cool cookies 1 minute on baking sheets; transfer to racks to cool completely.
