Chocolate Chip Molasses Cookies image

This recipe originally came from my grandmother but I have altered it a bit to add my favorite: chocolate chips. They are not a traditional molasses cookie so even people who don't enjoy molasses like these cookies.-Mellowdee Jae Brooks, Moscow, Idaho

Overall, I thought these cookies were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't amazing either.

The cookies didn't turn out as chewy as I expected. I think I overbaked them a bit.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe next time.

I'm not a huge fan of molasses, but I really enjoyed these cookies. The molasses flavor is subtle and not overpowering.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover molasses. I always have a jar of molasses in my pantry, so I can make these cookies anytime.
