GRANNY'S MOLASSES COOKIES
Whenever we went to my granny's for afternoon tea we knew we would be served these. These are nice and chewy. These have very similar ingredients to other molasses cookies recipes posted-the exception is the addition of maple flavouring and vanilla which i think make a nice addition! I'm a huge oatmeal/chocolate chip cookie fan but have to admit that these are a nice change from the everyday cookie, I hope you do too. (Don't overcook-unless you like crispy cookies).

[email protected]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 I have a craving for something sweet.

[email protected]I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out flat and hard. I'm going to try again with a different recipe.

[email protected]These cookies are a bit too dry for my liking. I think I'll try adding a little bit of milk or water to the dough next time.

[email protected]I had a hard time getting the cookies to spread out in the oven. I think I might have needed to chill the dough for longer.

[email protected]These cookies are a little too sweet for my taste, but they're still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

[email protected]I added a little bit of chocolate chips to my cookies, and they were delicious! I also used dark molasses instead of regular molasses, which gave them a deeper flavor.
