I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the walnuts in this recipe with chocolate chips. They turned out great!

These cookies are the perfect balance of sweet and spicy. The molasses gives them a wonderful flavor, and the ginger and cinnamon add just the right amount of тепло.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out flat and crispy. They didn't have the soft and chewy texture that I was expecting.

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 sweet for my taste, but they're still pretty good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not usually a fan of molasses cookies, but these ones were surprisingly good. They were soft and chewy, and the molasses flavor wasn't too overpowering.
