Рецепт Uncle Amos' Molasses Cookies

This is an old stand-by, perfect for the holidays, for winter, for enjoying with a glass of milk, or hot coffee, tea or cocoa.

The beautiful thing is that these cookies get better everyday - if you can stand to have them around without consuming them!

This is a make-the-dough-one-day and bake-the-cookies-the-next project, so allow 2 days to produce these beauties.

You may decorate these cookies with a frosting or sugar sprinkles - but we like 'as is'.

    This reminds me of the cookies a neighbor lady would make and give to us kids when we visited (terrorized) her. She would always serve us these in the winter with a nice big cup of cocoa, then send us home to mom. Hahaha...four little kids on a sugar high!
    I'm saving this recipe to "try soon", and thanks for sharing, Amos!
    • I've been looking for a recipe that tastes like Great Harvest's ginger bop cookies and this is it! I did a few things differently. Instead of shortening, I used half coconut oil and half butter. I skipped rolling and cutting out the dough. Instead, I scooped out heaping Tablespoonfuls and rolled them into balls. Then I rolled them in raw sugar (turbinado). Finally, I flattened them with the bottom of a glass. I had a plumber over fixing some leaky pipes, while I was baking these, and he actually said he would give me a discount if I gave him some! :) Will definitely be making these again. Thanks Amos!

            I suggest 1/4tsp orange oil, Caryn. You want just enough to add that bright note, but not enough to become a dominant note. Please let me know how it goes, and thanks for trying the recipe and asking the question! Best regards - Amos

              I have orange oil. Can I use it instead of orange peel?
