Molasses Cookies

Chewy Canadian molasses cookies with crisp, crackled edges, warm ginger, and a deep caramel finish. A brief chill keeps the dough thick and gives the cookies their characteristic bakery-style texture.

Comment préparer

1
Whisk the flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves in a medium bowl until the spices are evenly distributed.
2
Beat the softened butter and brown sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 to 3 minutes, until lighter and creamy.
3
Mix in the molasses, then add the egg and beat just until smooth, scraping down the bowl once. The mixture may look slightly curdled, which is fine.
4
Add the spiced flour mixture in two additions and mix on low speed just until no dry streaks remain. Cover and chill the dough for 30 minutes, until firm enough to scoop.
5
Heat the oven to 180°C and line two baking sheets with parchment. Put the granulated sugar in a shallow bowl.
6
Scoop the dough into 24 portions of about 25 g each, roll them into balls, and coat each ball lightly in granulated sugar. Arrange 8 per sheet, leaving at least 5 cm between them.

7
Bake one sheet at a time for 10 to 12 minutes, rotating the sheet halfway through, until the tops are crackled and the edges are set while the centers still look slightly soft.

Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a rack and cool completely before storing.

Pourquoi cette recette fonctionne

Molasses contributes moisture, acidity, and bittersweet depth, while brown sugar keeps the centers soft. Ginger, cinnamon, and cloves provide a classic Canadian spice profile, and a short chill prevents excess spreading.

Conservation et réchauffage

Comment la conserver

Store completely cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Freeze baked cookies for up to 2 months, separating layers with parchment.

Comment la réchauffer

These cookies are best at room temperature and do not need reheating. To refresh a frozen cookie, thaw it uncovered for 20 to 30 minutes.
