Categories: Cookies
     Yield: 28 Cookies

   3/4 c  Unsalted butter; (170 g);
          -room temperature
 1 1/4 c  Granulated sugar; (250 g);
          -divided
   1/4 c  Light brown sugar; (50 g);
          -lightly packed
   1/3 c  Unsulphured molasses; (113
          -g) (NOT blackstrap)
     1 lg Egg
   1/2 ts Fine salt
     2 ts Baking soda
 1 1/2 ts Ground ginger
     1 ts Ground cinnamon
   1/4 ts Ground cloves
 2 1/4 c  All-purpose flour; (286 g)

 Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

 In a large bowl, use an electric mixer fitted with the paddle
 attachment to beat the butter, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, and brown
 sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the molasses and
 egg and beat until combined. Add in the salt, baking soda, ginger,
 cinnamon, cloves, and flour, and beat until combined.

 Place the remaining 1/2 cup sugar in a shallow dish. Scoop the dough
 into 1 1/2 tb balls and roll in the sugar before placing on the
 baking sheet, leaving plenty of room for spread. Bake for 15 minutes
 or until the cookies are spread and the surface looks crackled.

 Let cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before removing to wire
 racks to cool completely. Store cookies in an airtight container at
 room temperature for up to 7 days.

 Notes:

 Be sure to use spices that haven't been sitting open in your spice
 cabinet for years! The fresher the spice, the more flavorful it'll be.
