When the weather is cold and blustery, I
love the smell of warm cookies fresh out of the oven. These cookies, rich with
molasses, cinnamon, and ginger, are scrumptious and perfect with tea and a good book!
Marvelous Molasses Cookies
1 cup dark brown sugar, packed
¾ cup butter, softened
⅓ cup molasses
1 egg
2 ⅓ cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon salt
Preheat oven to 375º.
Cream the brown sugar and butter. Add molasses and egg, and beat
to incorporate. Stir in the flour, soda, cinnamon, ginger, and salt until
thoroughly combined. Roll rounded teaspoonfuls of dough into balls and place on
lightly greased cookie sheets. Bake until just set, between 10-12 minutes.
Makes about 4 dozen mouthwatering cookies.
Now that the cookies are baked, brew yourself a cup of hot tea and
snuggle up with my latest sweet romance novel, A BEAUTIFUL STRANGER. This is
the first book of my A Family Forever Series. Available in these fine stores:
Book 2 of the series, MADE IN PARADISE, will be out soon!

ReplyDeleteThanks for the recipe, Donna. I haven't used molasses in years, so will want to try this. And, best wishes on your latest novel--sounds great.
ReplyDeleteThese sound delicious.
ReplyDeleteThese cookies sound amazing! One of my favorite recipes is a spice cookie that has nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves. Yum! I'm adding this recipe to my list of must tries!
