Steps

35 min

1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2

Mix together butter and sugar until light and fluffy, approximately 2-3 minutes with an electric mixer. Add egg and molasses and mix well.
3

In a separate bowl combine flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and ginger, stirring to combine.
4

Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until well combined.
5

Form or scoop balls of dough that are slightly smaller than a golf ball. If desired, roll dough balls in granulated sugar after forming. Place them on a baking sheet approximately 2” to 3” apart to allow room for cookies to spread.
6

Finally, bake for 10-12 minutes, remove from oven and allow cookies to cool on baking for approximately ten minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
