That's so weird. I was just going through all my baking supplies and came across this big jar of molasses. I thought to myself "What could I make with molasses????????"
I love molasses and was in the mood to make something really molassey.
I made these today- SO freaking awesome. I didn't have any crystalized ginger on hand- but they were delicious without! But I think I'm going to have to bring the leftovers to the kids tomorrow- because I can't stop eating them!
I wound up undercooking them a teensy bit, and then after they cooled I sealed them in a tupperware. Danny said they're his new favorite cookie. He said he loves gingersnaps, but they're always too hard- but these were sort of soft and chewy (even the next day!)
I'll probably try the blueberry cakes next weekend!
Oh my goodness Molly. I love you. Your such a good wife.
