BEST EVER GINGER MOLASSES COOKIES (BETTER THAN STARBUCKS!)
Ingredients
* 1 1/4 cup unsalted butter at room temperature
* 2 cups white sugar
* 2 eggs
* 1/2 cup molasses
* 4 cups all purpose flour
* 1/2 tsp salt
* 4 tsp baking soda
* 2 tsp ground cinnamon
* 1 tsp grated fresh ginger or powdered ginger
* 1/2 tsp ground cloves
* 1/3 cup white sugar for rolling
Instructions
* Add the butter to the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Cream the butter on medium high speed until it is soft and creamy and the colour begins to turn pale (use a hand mixer if you wish).
* Add the sugar and beat on medium high speed for 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl a few times.
* Beat in the eggs on medium high speed one at a time, scraping down the bowl after each addition.
* Beat in the molasses and scrape down the bowl to ensure everything is evenly combined.
* In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, grated ginger, cinnamon, cloves and salt. Whisk these ingredients together to they're combined and dump the mixture into the bowl of the stand mixer with the butter mixture.
* Combine the butter mixture and the dry ingredients on low speed just until no streaks of flour remain. You'll have to scrape down the sides of the bowl a few times to make sure everything is incorporated.
* Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for one hour.
* After one hour has passed, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
* Remove the dough from the fridge and shape it into about 36 balls with your hands, rolling each ball of dough in the white sugar and placing it on a baking sheet prepared with some parchment paper. Remember to space the cookies out appropriately...this recipe makes about 3 dozen cookies so you'll likely need to bake 3 or more sheets of cookies.
* Bake each sheet of cookies for 10-11 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
* When you remove the baking sheet from the oven, let the cookies cool on the baking sheet until they've cooled almost completely. This will help them achieve that soft and chewy texture as they continue to bake on the inside even after they've been removed from the oven.

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.
