Rolled Molasses Sugar Cookies image

The trick to getting 'chewy' cookies is to bake them the minimum time necessary and then cool them directly on a surface (i.e. - counter, table, etc). Don't cool them on a rack! You can also store them with a slice of apple.

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

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These cookies are a great make-ahead treat. I often bake them a few days before I need them, and they're just as good.
