  • You'll love these soft homemade chewy molasses cookies! They're easy to make, richly-spiced, and a favorite for holiday cookie platters and all year round! If you’ve never had this classic cookie, they’re similar to gingerbread cookies in all the best ways! By the by, you can definitely use dark treacle in place of molasses if needed.

    I buy my molasses from the sugar factory here in Barbados. I love it. One teaspoon in hot water taste like coffee and it is good for anemia ( in my personal experience).

    I just made these. Wow! Maybe the best cookie I've ever tried to make. I grew up in 'The South'...so there was always a jar of molasses on the table when buttermilk biscuits & melted butter were served. So I LOVE the taste of even a spoon full of just plain, ole molasses! I didn't have any ground ginger but I did have some beautiful candied ginger & I chopped about a half a cup & added to the mix. And I can NEVER have too many warm spices so I added allspice, nutmeg & cloves. I always loved lemon &/or orange sauce over warm gingerbread so I added some fresh (I have loads of citrus in the garden!) blood orange & Eureka lemon zest to the mix. WOW! THANK YOU for all the recipes. Anything I try from you turns out SO good. Cheers

    You're obviously not southern. LOL!!! We love a hot biscuit slathered with sweet butter and covered with molasses. Good ol' Blackstrap Molasses! And, yes, we think it's very "tasty".
    I've been making these cookies for over 30 years. They are our favorite Christmas cookie. In fact, we call them "The Christmas Cookie". I make the cookie dough, roll it into balls, coat it with sugar, and freeze on parchment paper lined cookie sheets. I store the frozen dough balls in Ziploc bags so we can bake a few at a time as we want them. I have six dozen dough balls in the freezer right now that I made three nights ago. They don't last long so I make a double batch each time. They are good anytime, but they are especially good at Christmas. As a matter of fact, I think I'll go take a few out of the freezer right now and bake them for us to have as an afternoon snack with a glass of milk.
    Try a good hot homemade biscuit with some butter and molasses. You can thank me later.

    Love molasses! I grew up in Nova Scotia where the molasses jug was always on the table. After a meal a fresh slice of homemade bread topped with Molasses was the Norm... Molasses cookies regardless of time of the year were a staple in the pantry. It is so healthy source of iron, selenium, copper and calcium all good for bone health . 1 Tbsp.Blackstrap molasses contains 20% of the iron you each day. Yes and as stated below good for anemia...( personal experience as well)

      M L okay so I made it, but I kind of messed up the recipe 🤣 I pulled out the 1/3 measuring cup instead of 1/4. It called for 3/4 cup of sugar, accidentally did 1 cup 😳 and I added more spices. In total I did 1 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon, only 1/2 teaspoon ginger, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, and 1/2 teaspoon cloves. Even though I kinda messed up, IT WAS THE BEST COOKIE EVER! It was perfectly spiced, and made big chewy/soft cookies. I baked for about 10 mins and other than the spices and the sugar, I followed the recipe EXACT.

    Molasses is a byproduct of the sugar-making process, and it comes from crushed sugar cane or sugar beets. First, manufacturers crush sugar cane or sugar beets to extract the juice. They then boil down the juice to form sugar crystals.

    Molasses is very big in Nova Scotia Canada. My cousin eats it with homemade biscuits. Your recipe looks yummy.
