Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 teaspoon ginger
- ¾ cup butter
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup molasses
- 1 egg
- ½ cup granulated or sanding sugar
Instructions
- Whisk together the dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and ginger) and set aside.
- Add the butter, brown sugar, molasses, and egg to a separate bowl, and beat with a mixer until smooth.
- Add the dry ingredients while mixing on low until fully combined.
- Chill the dough for about 20-30 minutes while you preheat the over to 325 degrees.
- Form the dough into about 3/4" balls, flatten them slightly in the palm of your hands. Roll them in the granulated sugar and place them on a baking sheet. Leave enough space for them to spread out a bit.
- Cook for 8-10 minutes.
Notes
For easy cleanup, line your baking sheet with parchment or a silpat.
