Ingredients

  • 170 grams butter, room temperature

  • 1/2 cup (110 g) sugar

  • 1/2 cup (100g) brown sugar

  • 1 egg, room temperature

  • 1/4 cup (75 g) molasses

  • 2 teaspoons fresh ginger root, peeled and microplaned

  • 2 1/4 cups (365 g) flour

  • 2 teaspoons baking soda

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger

  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • 1/2 cup crystallized ginger, chopped

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F, and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Cream together butter and sugar in electric mixer until light and creamy, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Add egg, molasses, and fresh ginger until blended.
  • Combine remaining ingredients in a separate bowl: flour, baking soda, salt, spices, and crystallized ginger. Mix together thoroughly.
  • Slowly add flour mixture on low speed until just combined, then chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Roll tablespoons of dough into small balls, then place each ball into a small bowl of sugar and coat the outside.
  • Bake cookies 12-15 minutes until firm around edges, but still soft in the center. Cool completely on sheets on racks before moving.

Notes

  • You can also freeze these balls at Step 6, then bake from frozen at a later time, just add a couple extra minutes to baking time.
