HOLIDAY SUGAR COOKIES RECIPE - PEANUT BUTTER CHIP COOKIES RECIPE. Holiday Sugar Cookies Recipe
Soft Molasses Cookies (Recipe) More forays into cookie baking. I love ginger molasses cookies, but I don't like the hard, tough texture of ginger snaps. These have all the delicious, spicy flavors of gingersnaps, but they're soft and chewy. Yum. This recipe makes about 3 dozen cookies. Soft Molasses Cookies 4 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 1/4 teaspoons baking soda 2 teaspoons ground ginger 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cloves 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened 1/2 cup vegetable shortening 3 cups sugar 1/2 cup sugar for dipping 1/2 cup unsulfured molasses 2 large eggs Preheat oven to 350°F. and lightly grease 2 large baking sheets. In a large bowl whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, ginger, cloves, and cinnamon. In another large bowl with an electric mixer beat together butter, shortening, and 3 cups sugar until light and fluffy and beat in molasses. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture and combine well. Put the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar in a small bowl.Roll the dough between your palms into 1.5- inch balls and dip the top in the sugar. Arrange the balls on the baking sheets at least 2 inches apart. Bake cookies in batches in middle of the oven 11 minutes, or until puffed and golden. (Cookies should be soft.) Transfer cookies with a metal spatula to racks to cool. Do not be tempted to bake them longer, or they will become hard like hockey pucks! Cookie Baking Party
