Ingredients
1
tbsp
(plant) butter softened
(14 g)
1 1/2
tbsp
brown sugar
(18 g) I used dark brown sugar
1
tsp
molasses
(7 g)
drop of vanilla extract
1/4
cup
flour (spooned and leveled)
(30 g) gf all purpose if desired
1/4
tsp
baking powder
1/4
tsp
each of ground cinnamon and ginger
pinch of salt, ground nutmeg and cloves
1
tsp or so
water
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F and line a cookie sheet with parchment.
In a small bowl add your butter and sugar. Cream together using a fork (and some elbow grease, should be light and fluffy).
Add molasses and vanilla, beat again.
In a mug or small bowl, combine all dry. Add this to the cream mixture and combine until crumbly.
Add 1/2 tsp water at a time to make a soft non-sticky dough.
Form balls of dough between your palms. (Optional) Roll them in granulated sugar. Flatten gently (they don’t spread too much).
Bake 12 minutes. Cookies will deflate a bit as they cool. Enjoy!
Notes
If you don't have a food scale, remember to use the
spoon & level method
in measuring flour to avoid over-measuring, which will lead to dry cookies.
