I'm not a big fan of molasses cookies, but these ones are really good. They're soft and chewy, and the molasses flavor is not too overpowering.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the walnuts with chocolate chips. The cookies still turned out great!

I had some trouble getting the cookies to spread out in the oven. I think I might have needed to chill the dough for longer.
