Description

The perfect combination of gingerbread and chocolate all combined into one soft and chewy cookie.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups All-purpose Flour
  • 2 Tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 1-½ teaspoon Ground Ginger
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoons Ground Cloves
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • ¼ teaspoons Ground Nutmeg
  • ½ cups Unsalted Butter, Softened
  • ½ cups Brown Sugar
  • ½ cups Sugar Plus 3 Tablespoons For Rolling Cookies
  • 1  Large Egg
  • ¼ cups Molasses
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350ºF.

In a medium bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, ground ginger, cinnamon, baking soda, cloves, salt and nutmeg and set aside.

Using an electric mixer on medium speed, cream butter with brown sugar and white sugar until fluffy. Add in the egg and blend until combined, followed by molasses and vanilla. Gradually add in the flour mixture to the wet ingredients until well combined. Stir in chocolate chips.

Make tablespoon-sized balls and roll in the remaining 3 tablespoons sugar. Place on baking sheet 1 ½ inches apart from each other. Bake for 8-10 minutes until tops begin to crack. Cool for several minutes on the baking sheet before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

Store in an airtight container.

These cookies are fantastic! They have a lovely crispy shell and a soft and chewy center. They also keep their shape beautifully. A keeper in our household!
