Classic Gingersnap Cookies

Classic Gingersnap Cookies are a timeless treat that everyone loves. These cookies are perfect for any occasion, whether it's a holiday party or a simple afternoon snack. With their warm, spicy flavor and crispy texture, they are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.

To make Classic Gingersnap Cookies, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup molasses
- 1 egg
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves


To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the molasses and egg, and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, form the dough into balls and roll them in granulated sugar. Place the balls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned and the centers are set. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
These Classic Gingersnap Cookies are the perfect combination of sweet and spicy. They have a crispy texture on the outside and a soft, chewy center. The warm flavors of cinnamon, ginger, and cloves make them a comforting treat that is perfect for any time of year.
