Time 20m

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 10

½ cup butter, softened
½ cup molasses
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
⅓ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup white sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Beat butter, molasses, cocoa, 1/3 cup sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt together in a large bowl until well blended. Beat in flour on low speed just until blended; dough will be firm.
  • Form into 1-inch balls; roll in 1/4 cup sugar. Place 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until puffy and cracked on top, 8 to 9 minutes. Cool on the cookie sheets for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies came out too dry. Not sure what went wrong.

It was alright. I think I'll stick to my usual chocolate cookies recipe.

The molasses flavor is nice, but I think I'd use a bit less next time. Otherwise, a great recipe!

My only complaint is that I wish I had made a double batch! Enjoyed it so much, will definitely make again.

Not a big fan of molasses, but this recipe made me a convert! Love how the molasses and chocolate play off of each other.

I omitted molasses with brown sugar and butter, and they turned out great! Highly recommend.

I love that the molasses cookies have chewy chocolate chips and crispy molasses-flavored edges. A perfect combo.

These cookies are absolutely delicious! They have the perfect balance of sweetness and bitterness from the dark chocolate and molasses. I also love the chewy texture.
