- 3 cups flour
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 TBS. ground ginger
- 1 TBS. ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 3/4 cup molasses
- 3/4 cup butter softened and cut into cubes
- 2 TBS. milk
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup confectioners sugar
In the bowl of an electric mixer place flour, brown sugar, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, and salt, mix at a low speed until combined.
Add the butter cubes and mix on medium speed until the mixture resembles coarse meal, about 90 seconds.
Reduce the mixer to low speed and slowly add in the milk and molasses. Mix until the dough is evenly moistened and then mix on medium until well combined.
Divide the dough in half, form each half into a round shape and pat down until it's an inch thick. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 2 hours in the fridge.
When ready to bake remove one disk of dough at a time to work with. Scoop enough dough to form a 2-inch dough ball.
Then roll each dough ball into the white sugar and then into the confectioners sugar.
Place the cookies 1 inch apart on a baking sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes at 350F.
