The best gluten-free molasses cookies are soft and chewy, filled with the flavors of cinnamon, ginger and cloves, dipped in sugar, and, of course, gluten free!

Steps:
- Cream butter with brown sugar until smooth.
- Stir in egg and salt.
- Add molasses and buttermilk, stir.
- Sift together flours, baking soda, and spices. I strongly recommend sifting because chestnut flour can be a little lumpy. Note: the ratios of the four flours I used can be adjusted to your taste. Brown rice and sorghum flours are whole-grainy and do make the cookies a little less soft, while chestnut flour has a strong taste of its own. Play with the ratios to change the texture.
- Add about 3 cups of the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix in (you can use an electric mixer) until smooth.
- Add the remaining flour, the dough should be stiff enough that you'll probably have to stir this in by hand.
- Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Roll dough out on a floured board to about 1/4" thickness.
- Cut circles or shapes. This dough makes good gingerbread men.
- Bake 15 minutes at 375.
- Cool. Frost with a soft cream cheese frosting if desired.

GLUTEN FREE "MOLASSES" SPICE COOKIES
These cookies were inspired by Dorie Greenspan's delicious looking Molasses Spice Cookies which I saw in a recent Parade Magazine. I read Parade every weekend (it comes in our local paper), and I especially enjoy checking out the recipes in it and then renovating them for my gluten free higher protein desires. http://www.elanaspantry.com/molasses-spice-cookies/

Tips:
- Use high-quality molasses. The quality of your molasses will directly impact the flavor of your cookies. Look for a dark, robust molasses that has a strong flavor.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly. Bake just until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft.
- Let the cookies cool completely before serving. The cookies will continue to firm up as they cool. Let them cool completely before serving for the best flavor and texture.
Conclusion:
Gluten-free molasses cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
