Today we are making delicious and easy ginger molasses cookies! This is the first easy cookie recipe in our 12 days of Christmas cookies 2021 series! These easy ginger cookies have the perfect balance of warm spices and a soft chewy texture. The sugar coating adds just the right amount of crunch. It's easy to see why these are one of my most popular Christmas cookie recipes! The best part of these easy ginger molasses Christmas cookies is that the dough can be frozen for up to 3 months which allows you to prepare these cookies far in advance!
Chewy ginger molasses cookie recipe
Ingredients:
2+1/4 cups all purpose flour 290g
1/2 tablespoon ground ginger 5g
1 teaspoon cinnamon 2.5g
1/4 teaspoon cloves 1g
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt 1g
3/4 teaspoon baking soda 3g
3/4 cup softened butter 170g
1/2 cup granulated white sugar 100g (+1/4 cup 50g for coating)
1/2 cup packed brown sugar (light or dark) 90g
1 large room temperature egg 50-60g
1/4 cup dark molasses 30g
Directions:
In a medium bowl combine flour, spices, baking soda and salt, whisking to combine. In the bowl of a stand mixer or a large bowl if using a hand mixer cream butter and sugars (reserve the 1/4 cup for coating) for a couple of minutes until they are well incorporated and the mixture is light and airy. Add in the egg and continue mixing another 2 minutes. Add in the molasses and mix until incorporated. Gradually add in dry ingredients, mixing for a few seconds after each addition. Chill dough for 30 minutes (or up to 3 days). Place the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar in a small bowl. Once your dough is chilled preheat your oven to 350F/175C. Using a 1.5 tablespoon cookie scoop or two spoons, scoop balls and roll them in the sugar ensuring that all sides are coated. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet, leaving room for spreading. Bake 7-9 minutes, removing from the oven as soon as the bottoms are golden brown. Move to a wire rack to cool completely. This recipe makes approximately 28 cookies, depending on the size of your scoops. These cookies will keep for up to 5 days, but they can also be frozen, baked or unbaked.
Freezing instructions:
a. You can freeze your baked cookies in a freezer tight bag or container for up to 30 days. Allow to thaw for 1 hour.
b. Freeze your unbaked sugar coated cookie dough balls. Place on a pan or plate and freeze for 30 minutes. Transfer to a freezer tight bag or container. These can be frozen for up to 3 months. Remove from the freezer 30 minutes before baking. Bake as indicated above.

Ingredients
¾ cup unsalted butter softened to room temperature (170g)
1/2 cup granulated sugar (100g)
1/2 cup dark brown sugar packed, can substitute light brown sugar (100g)
1 large egg
1/4 cup unsulphured molasses it should say unsulphered on the label, I used Grandma's brand) (60ml)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (280g)
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
¾ teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cup granulated sugar for rolling
Instructions
00:00 Introduction
00:09 Combine butter and sugars in the bowl of a stand mixer (or you may use a large bowl and an electric hand mixer).
00:36 Add egg, stir until combined.
00:42 Add molasses and vanilla extract, stir well until ingredients are combined.
01:02 In a separate, medium-sized bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, and salt.
01:37 Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until completely combined.
02:00 Cover dough with clear wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours.
02:08 Once dough has chilled, preheat oven to 375F (190C) and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Roll dough into heaping Tablespoon-sized balls and roll in sugar to coat completely.
02:41 Place at least 2 apart on prepared cookie sheet and bake on 375F (190C) for 10-11 minutes.
The cookies should look baked but have slightly under-done centers. Let them cool completely on the baking sheet to finish cooking -- this will make them very soft.

Ginger Molasses Cookies
4 Cups Organic All Purpose Flour
11/2 cup Organic Cane Sugar
4 tsp. Baking Soda
1 tsp. Pink Himalayan Salt
2 Eggs
1 1/2 Cups Butter (softened & cut into cubes)
1/2 Cups Non-GMO Molasses
2 Drops Cinnamon Vitality
2 Drops Clove Vitality
5 Drops of Ginger Vitality
????Step. Add the Flour, Baking Soda, Sugar, and Salt to a bowl and mix well.
????Step 2. Crack Eggs in a separate bowl and then add them to the dry ingredients.
????Step 3. Add the Molasses, Butter, Sugar, Cinnamon Oil, Clove Oil, and Ginger Oil to the bowl with the dry ingredients
????Step 4. Now mix all the ingredients until well combined. (An electric mixer works best, but using those arm muscles is an excellent workout!)
????Step 5. Chill your dough if you want to make these cookies later (we made ours immediately). Be sure to let the dough sit for 20 minutes before scooping if making it later
????Step 6. Scoop your dough with a cookie scooper or a good old-fashioned spoon. Roll into balls, and then roll each cookie in your granulated cane sugar (you can also skip rolling in the sugar)
????Step 7. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 350 degrees
????Step 8. Place your cookies on a baking sheet 3 inches apart.
????Step 9. Grab a glass cup and use the bottom of the cup to flatten each ball halfway (don't press down too hard; you don't want them completely flat)
????Step 10. Bake your cookies for 10-15 minutes and cool on a baking rack. Enjoy or save them for later.
