Last night I was really craving molasses cookies . . .These are soooo good!
1 ½ c Butter
1 c Sugar
½ c Molasses
1 c Brown Sugar
2 Eggs
1 tsp Cinnamon
½ tsp Cloves
½ tsp Sea Salt
½ tsp Ginger
1 Tbsp + 1 tsp Baking Soda
4¼ c Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
Cream together butter, sugar, molasses, and eggs. Mix flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, cloves, and ginger. For high altitudes, add another ¼ cup of flour. Combine all ingredients until well mixed. Refrigerate 1 – 2 hours. Roll into 1” balls, and place on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 400° for 8 – 10 minutes until edges are set. Remove to wire racks to cool. Optional: Dip half of each cookie in melted white chocolate and set to dry on waxed paper.
