Prep:20minCook:9min
On the thirteenth day of our Christmas Countdown, we're warming up the kitchen with Chewy Molasses Cookies. These cookies are a holiday favorite, with a rich molasses flavor, a hint of ginger, and a soft, chewy texture that melts in your mouth.
Baking Notes:
Molasses adds moisture to these cookies, which helps achieve that perfect chewy texture.
Don't skimp on the chill time; it helps the flavors meld and prevents the cookies from spreading too much.
For an extra kick, add a pinch of black pepper or cardamom to the dough.
