It’s no secret that I absolutely love Molasses Cookies. I’ve posted several recipes here: Fat Archie’s and Rod’s Soft Molasses Cookies.
These cookies may skyrocket to the #1 position of my all-time favorite cookies to make. A soft moist cookie with a nice hint of ginger. Make sure you refrigerate the dough for a minimum of 2 hours before you bake them!
