Number Of Ingredients 10

¾ cup molasses
⅓ cup packed brown sugar
⅓ cup water
⅛ cup butter, softened
3 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon ground cloves
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, mix together the molasses, brown sugar, water and butter until smooth. Combine the flour, baking soda, allspice, ginger, cloves and cinnamon, stir them into the wet mixture until all of the dry is absorbed. Cover the dough and chill for at least 3 hours.

  • Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove from the cookie sheets to cool on wire racks.
