Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup molasses
- 1 large egg
- Additional sugar for rolling
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, ground ginger, cinnamon, cloves, baking soda, and salt. Set that aside.
- In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and 1 cup of granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Add the molasses and egg to the butter mixture; mix until well combined.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Don’t overmix; we want those cookies to be tender!
- Scoop out tablespoon-sized balls of dough and roll them in the additional sugar. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set but the centers are soft. They’ll continue to firm up once they cool.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
And just like that, you’re ready to enjoy some Amazing Ginger Snaps! Share them with your loved ones or keep them all to yourself—no judgment here! Happy baking!
