Yield: 28 cookies
Ingredients:
- ¾ cup (1.5 sticks) butter, softened
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 egg, room temperature
- ¼ cup dark molasses
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 packets Prince of Peace Ginger Honey Crystals
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp ground cloves
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- Extra granulated sugar
Directions:
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
-
In a large bowl, beat the butter until smooth.
-
Add the granulated and brown sugar to the butter. Cream the ingredients for 3 minutes, or until it’s a fluffy texture.
-
Beat the egg and molasses into the mixture.
-
In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, Prince of Peace ginger honey crystals, cinnamon, cloves, baking soda, and salt.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients in the second bowl to the contents of the first bowl. Mix well.
-
Line the baking sheet with foil. Do not add oil or butter to grease the sheet.
-
Use a tablespoon-sized ice cream scoop to portion out the dough. If you don’t have one, scoop a tablespoon of dough and roll it into a ball to place onto the baking sheet.
-
Place the balls two inches apart on the baking sheet to allow room for expansion in the oven.
-
Sprinkle the tops of the dough balls with the extra granulated sugar for a sweet touch.
-
Bake the cookies about 10-12 minutes until they are nice and puffy, with a light brown color.
-
Cool the cookies on a wire rack, and enjoy!
