Soft Molasses Spice Cookies image

No hockey pucks here - gingersnaps without the snap! Granted, if you like crispy cookies, simply bake a few minutes longer. I just made these tonight with my 20 month old, so the prep time is approximate - I'm sure it took us longer than usual. :) Prep time includes chill time. This is another of my mom's recipes, modified to make it slightly healthier. I hope you enjoy! We sure did, with a big glass of cold milk before DD's bedtime.

These cookies are way too sweet for me. I'll definitely be reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These cookies are a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra spices next time.

I'm not a huge fan of spice, but these cookies were still really good. The spices are very subtle and don't overpower the other flavors.

I used a different type of spice blend than the recipe called for, but the cookies still turned out great. I'm sure you can experiment with different spices to find your own favorite combination.

These cookies are amazing! They're soft, chewy, and have the perfect amount of spice. I'm definitely making these again.
