Ingredients

1/2 cup butter (softened)

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1 egg

3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup molasses

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon cloves

1/8 teaspoon nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 cups all purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 cup granulated sugar (for rolling)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cream butter and sugars together until light and fluffy. Stir in egg, vanilla, and molasses. Whip 1-2 minutes or until it turns a light brown color. Stir in remaining ingredients and mix until dry ingredients are just combined.

Roll a heaping tablespoon of dough into a ball and coat in granulated sugar. Place on silicone baking mat, lightly greased cookie sheet or parchment paper-lined cookie sheet.

Bake 7-9 minutes or until outside looks cooked but inside is still soft and gooey. Cool 5 minutes on cookie sheet before transferring to a cooling rack.

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store in an airtight container until ready to serve.
