Ingredients
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp all spice
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 sticks unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 eggs
- 2 tsp ground ginger
- 2 tbsp molasses
Instructions
- In a medium bowl whisk flour, salt and spices. Set aside. In large bowl of a mixer blend butter and sugars until smooth. Add vanilla, ginger, molasses, and egg blending well.
- Slowly add flour mixture and blend well until mixture forms a dough. Remove from mixer onto parchment paper and refrigerate for about an hour.
- Once the dough is chilled, working on a floured surface roll dough out to desired thickness. I did about 1/4 inch thickness. Cut out into desired shapes and place on parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Bake at 350 degrees for about 7-9 minutes, checking frequently. Ovens vary, I usually start checking after 7 minutes. You want the tops set, not over done or too brown. When you take them out of the oven they will cook a little bit longer while they are hot.
Notes
I baked these at 350 degrees for about 7 minutes, individual ovens vary. This recipe makes about 3 dozen cookies. Baking them a half a dozen at a time will take about an hour to make all the cookies.
