Nutmeg Molasses Cookies image

This is from a Treasury of Holiday Cookies, a supermarket booklet that I picked up a couple of years ago. I have wanted to make these cookies and keep misplacing the booklet. If I post it, maybe I will make them.

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

These cookies are a little too sweet for my taste, but they're still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

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

I'm not usually a fan of molasses cookies, but these are an exception. They're so soft and chewy, and the nutmeg gives them a nice warm flavor.
