I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a huge fan of molasses, but I'm so glad I did! The molasses drops are perfectly spiced and have just the right amount of chewiness.

Followed the recipe exactly and the molasses drops came out perfectly! So chewy and rich with a lovely molasses flavor. I added a sprinkle of sea salt on top for a delightful sweet and salty combo.
