Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup molasses
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions:
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy
Beat in the molasses, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, baking soda, and salt
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined
Stir in the semisweet chocolate chips
Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until firm
Preheat the oven to 350F 175C and line baking sheets with parchment paper
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls
Place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly soft
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely
Once cooled, enjoy these deliciously soft gingerbread cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite hot beverage!
