How to Make Spicy Molasses Cookies By Bijoux

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon of molasses.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground cloves, ½ teaspoon ground allspice, and ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more, to taste).
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft. (Baking time may vary slightly depending on your oven.)
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
