Delicious Grandma’s Gingersnaps
These gingersnaps pack a punch of flavor with their spicy ginger kick and sugary sweetness. They are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, making them a delightful addition to any dessert table.
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon ground ginger
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup molasses
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar, for rolling
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, sift together flour, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, baking soda, and salt. Set it aside.
- In another large bowl, cream the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
- Add in the molasses and the egg to the mixture, beating until smooth.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until combined. Don’t overmix; we want these cookies to stay tender.
- Using a spoon or cookie scoop, form the dough into small balls, then roll them in granulated sugar until coated.
- Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. They will spread, so give them some room!
- Bake in your preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are slightly crisp. The centers will look soft, but they’ll firm up as they cool.
- Once done, remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks.
And there you have it! These Delicious Grandma’s Gingersnaps are ready to enjoy. Whether you’re sharing them with family or savoring them solo, each bite is a little piece of happiness. So go ahead, whip up a batch and let the good times roll!
