How to Make Soft Spicy Heavenly Ginger Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) vegan margarine and 1 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Stir in 1/2 cup molasses.
  4. In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup water and 1 teaspoon baking soda. Stir until dissolved and add to the wet ingredients.
  5. In a separate bowl, sift together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in 1 cup chopped crystallized ginger and 1/2 cup raisins.
  7. Roll the dough into walnut-sized balls (approximately 1 inch in diameter).
  8. Roll each ball in 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar.
  9. Place the cookies 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet and flatten slightly with a fork.
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
