Zubereitung von Alaska Molasses Cookies

  1. Line a plate with several layers of heavy-duty paper towels. Spread the applesauce evenly to 1/2-inch thickness. Cover with additional paper towels and let stand for 5 minutes to absorb excess moisture.
  2. Scrape the applesauce into a large bowl using a rubber spatula.
  3. Add 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter to the bowl.
  4. Beat at medium speed with an electric mixer for 3 minutes, until light and fluffy.
  5. Add 1/2 cup molasses and 1 large egg. Beat well to combine.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, beating until just combined. Do not overmix.
  8. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes, or until firm. This chilling step helps prevent the cookies from spreading during baking.
  9. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  10. With slightly moistened hands, shape the chilled dough into 32 balls (approximately 1 inch in diameter).
  11. Roll each ball in 1/4 cup granulated sugar to coat.
  12. Place the sugar-coated dough balls 3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  13. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Avoid overbaking.
  14. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
