Giant Molasses Cookies Recipe

Course: Snack
Categories: Cookie

Serving size: 24 servings
Preparation time: 30 mins
Cooking time: 15 mins

Ingredients
1-1/2 cups butter, softened
2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup molasses
4-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons baking soda
1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup chopped pecans (optional)
3/4 cup coarse sugar, ie Demerara

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs and molasses. Combine the flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. Fold in pecans.

2. Shape into 2-in. balls and roll in coarse sugar. Place 2-1/2-in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake 13-15 minutes or until tops are cracked. Remove to wire racks to cool. Yield: 2 dozen.

Notes
I usually make them half the size and get 12 cookies per sheet rather than five or six.

I don't use the pecans.
