I'm not a big fan of molasses cookies, but I tried these and they were actually really good! The spices really balance out the molasses flavor.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These cookies are a bit too spicy for my taste. But other than that, they're pretty good.
