Super Chewy Molasses Cookies

Patricia @ ButterYum

Yummy and chewy, chewy, chewy is how I describe these fantastic molasses cookies. They’re my new cookie obsession! The intoxicating sweet and spicy aroma of these cookies will pull you in, and their delicious flavor and chewy texture will keep you coming back for more!

Feel free to pull out your stand mixer if you like, but this simple recipe can easily be mixed with a hand mixer.

Start by whisking together the flour, baking soda, ground ginger, ground cloves, ground cinnamon, and table salt in a medium mixing bowl.

Sometimes time is a factor and rolling the dough can eat up precious minutes in one’s schedule, but I have to say, the sugar-coated cookies look the most festive after baking.

Bake as directed and allow cookies to cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely. Store cookies in an airtight container to maintain chewiness.
